Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: winter avalanche checks, spring blossoms, cool mornings in summer, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: March 2024
Winter
Follow designated snow routes and verify avalanche information before heading out. Keep dogs on a leash and avoid secluded zones.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings lush blooms to many valleys: steer clear of muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and hike at dawn for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glaciers, swim only in designated areas, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden forests and cooler mornings make for calmer hikes. Opt for less crowded huts and stay on durable paths.
