Choose the best month for the perfect experience

Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blooms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.

Updated: April 2025

Winter

Stay on designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions before you head out. Keep dogs leashed and steer clear of quiet zones.


Check safety bulletin

Spring

Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: skirt muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.

Summer

Begin early to reach glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.

Autumn

Golden forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
