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
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions before you go. Keep pets leashed and avoid silent zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings blossoms to many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at sunrise for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glaciers, swim only in designated zones, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Amber forests and cooler mornings lead to calmer hikes. Opt for quieter shelters and stay on sturdy paths.
