Four seasons
Choose the best month for the right experience
Align plans 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
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche status before you head out. Keep dogs leashed and avoid tranquil zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: sidestep muddy edges to prevent widening of trails, and venture out at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Start early for glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings make for gentler hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
