Coordinate activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blooms, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: April 2025
Winter
Stick to labeled snow routes and review avalanche risk before you head out. Keep dogs leashed and avoid quiet zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring marks bloom season in many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early to reach glaciers, swim only in designated zones, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings yield gentler hikes. Opt for less-busy huts and remain on sturdy paths.
