Choose the best month for the perfect experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blooms, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: August 2024
Winter
Stay on marked snow routes and verify avalanche risk before you head out. Keep pets leashed and steer clear of quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings valley blooms: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birds.
Summer
Head out early for glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings bring calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
