Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blooms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: May 2027
Winter season
Stay on designated snow routes and review avalanche risks before you head out. Keep dogs leashed and steer clear of tranquil areas.
Check safety bulletin
Springtime
In late spring valleys come alive with blooms; avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn to enjoy birdlife.
Summertime
Start early for glacier visits, swim only in designated areas, and consider microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn season
Amber forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and stay on sturdy trails.
