Trekking Season

Such in the diversity of this Himalayan Kingdom that trekking in most of the routes is possible throughout the year. With the changing weather conditions the surroundings also changes. Thus every season has its own attractions:

Autumn (September to November)

Just after the heavy downpour in the monsoon season, the sky is a turquoise blue with great mountains view and soothing greenery everywhere. It is considered the best trekking season with excellent weather and moderate temperature.

Winter (December to February)

Winter certainly brings lot of snowfall in the high trekking routes thus making it ideal for trekking in the low elevation, generally below 3500 meters. Even in winter the country gets a lot of sunshine. Thus a very moderate temperature specially in the day time. It is really nice to walk around with the warm sun shinning with the nearby hills and peaks glittering with snow.

Spring (March to May)

Spring, the king of the season brings a burst of flowers everywhere. Specially above 3000 meters there are forests of rhododendrons of different colours all soaked in the smell of these big mountain flowers. Just after the winter the temperature is mild and the mountains are really glittering with snow. People in the high altitude above 4000 meters are slowly returning back to their normal life after the slumber of the winter.

Summer (June to August)

Summer certainly is warm as well as wet. With water sprouting from everywhere, there are water falls everywhere and the vegetation is also lush. In such a wet condition it is recommended to carry insect repellents when trekking during these summer months.
