Choose the best month for the ideal experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blooms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: March 2027
Winter
Stay on marked snow routes and verify avalanche conditions before you head out. Keep dogs leashed and skip quiet zones.
Review safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring is the bloom season in many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent widening of trails, and go at sunrise for birdlife.
Summer
Start early for glaciers, 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.
