Four seasons
Choose the ideal 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: March 2027
Winter
Stay on designated snow trails and review avalanche forecasts beforehand. Leash dogs and steer clear of quiet areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blossoms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy margins to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn to catch birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier access, swim only in approved zones, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden woodlands and cooler mornings bring quieter hikes. Opt for less-frequented huts and keep to sturdy trails.
