Four seasons
Pick the right month for the right experience
Match activities to safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blooms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: March 2027
Winter
Stay on designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep dogs leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier views, swim only in designated zones, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings bring calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
