Four seasons
Choose the best month for the ideal experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blooms, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.

Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and verify avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep dogs on leash 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 to reach glaciers, swim only in approved areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Amber forests and cool mornings yield calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on well-maintained trails.
