Southern Hemisphere, so peak summer falls in Desember hingga Februari.

What hingga pack, what hingga skip

Pack for the next 7 days
  • A warm mid-layer and gloves for early mornings and evenings
  • Insulated outer layer, hat and boots dengan grip for ice
  • A packable rain shell - 7 of the next 7 days carry a real chance of rain
  • Tinggi-factor sunscreen and a long-sleeve sun layer for midday
Worth avoiding
  • Avoid unshaded sightseeing between 10am and 4pm - the Indeks UV peaks at 9.
  • Avoid high-elevation trails without traction devices - frozen surfaces persist in shade all day.
  • If your dates are flexible, avoid April, Mei and Oktober - historically the least comfortable months here.
