Four seasons
Choose the best month for the ideal experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks during winter, blossoms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and less crowded ridgelines in autumn.

Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep dogs on a leash and steer clear of quiet areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent widening of trails, and head out at sunrise for bird life.
Summer
Begin early for glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings lead to calmer hikes. Pick quieter huts and remain on sturdy trails.
