All year round
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: April 2024
Winter
Stick to designated snow trails and review avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep dogs on leash and avoid tranquil zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring is bloom time in many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier views, swim only in designated zones, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings lead to gentler hikes. Opt for less-busy hut accommodations and stay on sturdy trails.
