Nepal Weather & Climate Guide
Nepal has four distinct seasons: spring, summer (monsoon), autumn, and winter. Weather conditions vary greatly depending on altitude, making it essential to choose the right season for your journey.
Some regions, such as Upper Mustang and Dolpo, remain suitable even during monsoon, while most trekking routes are best enjoyed during spring and autumn.
Best Time for Trekking in Nepal
The best seasons for Trekking in Nepal are spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November), when skies are clear and mountain views are at their best.
However, Nepal is a year-round destination, and with proper planning, many routes are also suitable in winter and monsoon seasons.
