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

Winter season
Stick to marked snow routes and check avalanche conditions before you go. Keep dogs leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Springtime
Late spring is bloom season in many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and go at sunrise for birdlife.
Summertime
Start early for glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Fall season
Golden forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Choose quieter huts and stay on durable paths.
