All-year rounds
Choose the optimal month for the ideal experience
Align activities with safer, lighter footprints: avalanche reviews in cold months, blossoms in the warming season, cool dawns in warm season, and quieter ridgelines in autumn.
Updated: April 2026
Winter
Stick to designated snow routes and review avalanche conditions beforehand. Keep pets leashed and steer clear of tranquil areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings bloom season in many valleys: avoid muddy edges to prevent trail widening, and go at sunrise for birdlife.
Summer
Begin early for glacier views, swim only in designated areas, and think about microspikes for early-season snowfields.
Autumn
Golden woodlands and cooler mornings translate to gentler hikes. Opt for quieter lodges and stick to well-used trails.
