Coordinate activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in winter, blooms in spring, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: March 2026
Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions before heading out. Keep dogs leashed and steer clear of tranquil zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring marks bloom season in many valleys: steer clear of muddy margins to prevent widening trails, and set out at sunrise for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier views, bathe only in designated areas, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings yield calmer hikes. Opt for quieter huts and remain on well-trodden paths.
