All-year round
Choose the best month for the optimal experience
Match activities to safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blossoms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and tranquil ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: April 2024
Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and verify avalanche conditions before heading out. Keep pets on a leash and steer clear of tranquil areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings flowers to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and head out at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glaciers, swim only in approved zones, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings make for gentler hiking. Opt for quieter shelters and remain on sturdy trails.
