All-year-round seasons

Choose the best month for the right 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: March 2024

Winter

Stay on established snow routes and review avalanche forecasts before heading out. Leash your dogs and steer clear of tranquil areas.


Review safety bulletin

Spring

In late spring, many valleys bloom; steer clear of muddy edges to prevent widening of trails, and visit at dawn for birdlife.

Summer

Begin early to access glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.

Autumn

Golden forests and cooler mornings yield gentler hikes. Pick less busy huts and stick to sturdy paths.
