When to go.


Autumn is the main trekking season and runs from the end of September through until early December. At that time of year, the weather is mainly dry, the days are sunny, and clarity in the mountains is superb. It is the best time to go even though the lodges can get a little crowded at times.

Springtime is the next best time to visit Nepal. The weather from March through to May is warm and dusty, but with rain showers. In Kathmandu it can be warm and sticky but up in the hills it is quite pleasant; just be prepared for a few showers now and then.

Summertime brings with it the monsoon rains that fall as snow in the mountains. On lower level treks, leeches can be a problem although if you want to see the Himalayas in their lush green state with the accompanying floral glory then they are a small inconvenience.

Wintertime brings cold nights and although mornings can be foggy to begin with, the afternoons are mainly clear and quite pleasant. Watch out for occasional snow in the mountains.
