All-year rounds
Choose the best month for the ideal adventure
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
Stay on marked snow routes and review avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep dogs leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blossoms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and head out at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier access, swim only in designated zones, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Amber forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
