Travel Tips
The best time to visit is summer for outdoor activities and winter for snow sports. Pack layers and waterproof clothing due to variable weather. Respect local customs and nature preservation rules. Carry cash as some small businesses may not accept cards. Safety is high, but always inform someone when hiking remote trails.
