Choose the best month for the best experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blooms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and calmer ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: March 2026
Winter
Stick to designated snow paths and review avalanche conditions before you go. Keep dogs leashed and avoid secluded areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring is bloom season in many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier visits, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
