All-Year Ranges
Choose the best month for the right experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blossoms, cool mornings in summer, and calmer ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: April 2025
Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep dogs on a leash and avoid tranquil zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring is bloom time in many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at sunrise to spot birdlife.
Summer
Start early for glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
