What is best season to travel in Nepal?
The best seasons and time to travel and to trek in Nepal are dry and warm seasons, March-June and September-November. During these times, the temperature is acceptable and generally clear skies, although the skies are foggier and the rain begins in May-June. It is possible to trek out of season, but expect rain and leeches during the summer monsoon season and severe cold and closed high mountain passes during the winter months. Lodges shut down in some very remote place as they don't have much guests. During the monsoon season, the treks are virtually empty of travelers. Most rain usually comes at night; days are cloudy with less rain. The north side of the Himalayas is in rain shadow, meaning that the mountains somewhat block the rain. Annapurna Circuit is in rain shadow after Pisang. The skies are still cloudy and it rains occasionally. In mornings the skies may be clearer, but the views are still nowhere as good as during the trekking season. Landslides may block the trekking routes. And rivers are bigger, hard to cross through where no permanent bridges. We also have recommended summer treks, those could be Upper Mustang Trek, Upper Dolpo Trek is under rain shadow as mentioned above.
