Four seasons
Choose the ideal month for the perfect adventure
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blooms, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: April 2025
Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche forecasts before heading out. Keep dogs leashed and steer clear of tranquil areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms in many valleys: skip muddy margins to protect trails from widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier views, swim only in approved spots, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden autumn forests and crisper mornings promise gentler hikes. Opt for less busy huts and stick to sturdy paths.
