All Four Seasons
Choose the right month for the right adventure
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blooms, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: March 2025
Winter
Stick to marked snow routes and review avalanche conditions before you go. Keep dogs leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring is bloom time in many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and head out at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier views, swim only in designated areas, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Amber forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on sturdy paths.
