Pair activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blossoms, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: March 2025
Winter
Stay on designated snow paths and review avalanche risk before headings out. Keep pets leashed and steer clear of quiet areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings flowers to many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early to reach glaciers, swim only where permitted, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings lead to gentler hikes. Opt for quieter refuges and stick to sturdy trails.
