Travel Guide for Nepal

Weather & Clothing

Nepal has four seasons. Spring (March-May) has warm day time temperatures and cool mornings and evenings though nights can be chilly. Rain showers and thunder storms are common in lower reaches. Summer (May-August) is hot in the early months till about the middle of June when the monsoons set in. Once the rains start the temperature is cool. Autumn (September – November) is cool and the skies are clear. Winter (December-February) is cold with snow in the mountains but, clear skies and sunny days.

Clothing is dependant on the season and the places to be visited. During the summer light clothes are recommended for Kathmandu and the Terai region During the Spring and Autumn the days are comfortable in Kathmandu thought the evenings are cooler. If you are planning a visit to the mountains warm clothing is a must. May and the first half of June, just before the monsoons are the hottest times of the year. During the monsoons it rains a lot, but it is a considerate rain; falling mostly at nights. Winter in Kathmandu brings cold mornings and evenings and pleasant daytime temperatures with brilliant sunshine most days after the morning fog has lifted. It never snows in Kathmandu, though there is frost on cold nights in January and February. In the mountains the nights are cold, but the bright sun makes for pleasant daytime temperatures.

October and November are the busiest tourists months; flights and hotels are fully booked and the trails are alive with trekkers. Christmas time is cold, but since it is the holiday season in Japan and Australia these nationalities dominate flights and hotels. February is cold, warming up to the trekking season of March and April; Trekking tapers off in the heat of May except on the more remote and higher trails. The monsoon is a good time to visit Kathmandu, though there are few people involved in adventure activities-we have successfully operated adventure vacations for those who are willing to put up with the rain and brave the slippery trails. Newly opened destinations like Nar & Phu and  Mustang and Dolpo are the monsoon trekking destinations of choice as are behind the Himalaya and in the rain shadow.

People who would like to trek in less crowded areas should contemplate a trek during this time to Mustang or Dolpo.
