Four seasons
Choose the right month for the right experience
Pair activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blossoms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: March 2026
Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and verify avalanche conditions before heading out. Keep dogs leashed 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 start at dawn to catch birdlife.
Summer
Begin early to reach glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings promise quieter hikes. Opt for less crowded huts and stick to sturdy paths.
