Year-Round Seasons
Choose the best month for the right experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blossoms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: April 2025
Cold Season
Stay on marked snow routes and review avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep dogs on leash and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Early Bloom
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at first light for birdlife.
Warm Season
Begin early for glacier access, swim only in designated zones, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Fall
Golden forests and cooler mornings create calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stick to durable paths.
