Trekking In Nepal |
|
|
|
Although trekking
in Nepal can be organized throughout
the year, October through May are
considered to be the best months for
trekking. Summer months of the year
which coincides with monsoon begins
in mid-June and drains in
mid-September making travel wet and
warm. The mountain views may not be
at their best as rain clouds and
haze over hang the mountains
occasionally obscuring the
enchanting views. These times are
blessed for the keen botanist as the
higher valleys and meadows blossom
with flowers and lush vegetation.
During monsoon it does not mean that
it will rain every day. Besides,
some of the most frequented trails
will not be crowded and some people
like it that way. It can actually be
enjoyed in the upper part of the
Annapurna circuit around Marfa,
Jomsom and Muktinath as the monsoon
does not get in this trans-
Himalayan area.Note :- It is
recommended to carry insect
repellent when trekking during
summer months.
Autumn being the best season for
trekking, affronts excellent weather
and tantalizing mountain views
January and February are noted for
cold weather with occasional
snowfall at higher elevations.
Again, excellent views are common.
These months are popular and ideal
for trekking for those who are well
equipped or who remain at lower
elevations below 3,000 meters.
Late February brings spring in Nepal
and offers exhilarating trekking for
those who are interested in flowers,
birds and natural grandeur.
Different varieties of wild flowers,
specially the rhododendrons make the
hill side above 8,000 ft haunting
paradise during this season.
April and May are the expedition
season and the best time for
climbing the high peaks . It is
mildly warm at lower elevations but
occasional haze mars beautiful view
of mountains. At higher elevations
over 4,000 meters the mountain views
are excellent and the temperature is
quite moderate even at night
