The difference is similar in the way you would ask :
好きな季節は何ですか？
And
どちら季節が好きですか？
Both are correct. If I had to say, “what season” seems like I could give any answer and “which season” is like which among this given selection.
For example:
What kind music do you like?
- I could answer any kind of music
Between jazz, rap, and classical music, which kind of music do you like?
- I would use which here because I’m asking you among a set selection.
I would choose “Which season do you like?” Because there are four known season (So it would be which among them do I like).
