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

Cold Season
Stick to designated snow routes and verify avalanche conditions before you go. Keep pets leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Early Season
Late spring brings blooms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and start at sunrise for birdlife.
Warm Season
Begin at dawn for glaciers, swim only in designated zones, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Fall Season
Golden forests and cooler mornings create calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on sturdy paths.
