Four seasons
Choose the best month for the ideal experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche alerts in winter, blossoms in spring, cool dawns in summer, and calmer ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: November 2025
Winter
Stick to marked snow paths and review avalanche conditions before heading out. Keep dogs on a leash and steer clear of quiet areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent widening trails, and head out at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier views, swim only in designated spots, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings lead to calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and remain on durable trails.
