Choose the best month for your 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 2025
Winter
Stick to designated snow trails and review avalanche forecasts prior to heading out. Keep pets leashed and steer clear of quiet areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring marks bloom season in many valleys: steer clear of muddy margins to prevent trail widening, and try an early morning visit for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early to reach glaciers, swim only in approved zones, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Amber forests and crisper mornings lead to gentler hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on sturdy trails.
