Choose the best month for the perfect experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blooms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.

Winter
Stay on mapped snow routes and review avalanche conditions before heading out. Keep dogs leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and rise with the sun for birdlife observations.
Summer
Begin early for glacier access, swim only in designated zones, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings lead to calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on sturdy trails.
