Year-round seasons
Choose the best month for the ideal adventure
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blossoms in spring, crisp mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.

Winter season
Stick to designated snow routes and verify avalanche conditions before heading out. Keep dogs leashed and steer clear of quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring season
Late spring is bloom season in many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer season
Begin early for glacier views, swim only in designated zones, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn season
Amber forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Pick quieter huts and stay on sturdy paths.
