The window
Autumn alpine valleys cool quickly once shade reaches the trail.
Mornings turn cold fast once the sun drops behind the Julian Alps. A midweight layer earns its space in the bag even when the town feels mild at lunch. Trailheads around Bled and Bohinj feel that shade early.
Practical
Wear the layer for the first hour of any ridge walk, then stow it when the sun clears the peaks.
Prepare
Gloves for the viewpoint start are not overkill in October.
