All four seasons

Choose the best month for the ideal experience

Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blossoms in spring, brisk mornings in summer, and tranquil ridgelines in autumn.

Updated: March 2023

Winter

Stay on marked snow routes and review avalanche conditions before you head out. Keep dogs on a leash and avoid quiet zones.


Check safety bulletin

Spring

Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and head out at dawn for birdlife.

Summer

Start early for glacier views, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.

Autumn

Amber forests and cooler mornings foster calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
