Trekking Permits/Seasons

ACAP Check Post in Annapurna Region

Since Nepal is a country of diversification with its geography and climate, a nature lover can always make it as his or her destination of trekking year round. There are normally four seasons are considered in Nepal, each of which has its own particular attraction to offer.

Autumn (Sept- Nov): The best season offering excellent weather and outstanding mountain views.

Spring (March-May): The second finest trekking season. The temperature is quite moderate, especially the rhododendrons are in complete blossom and the mountain views are excellent.

Summer (June-August): This is the most preferable season to trek in the rain shadow areas like Jomsom, Upper Manang, Dolpo and Manang. These places are out of reach of the rain clouds because of the huge Himalayas and are unaffected by the monsoon. This season is also recommended for forest researchers and botanist. Warning-raincoats and insect repellents are strictly necessary in this period.

Winter (December-February): Suitable season for trekking at lower altitude, generally below 3500m. at Royal trekking, Sikles tekking, Langtang Valley, Helambu Trekking, Shivapuri Trekking.
