Nepal is known to have four distinct seasons and the Bay of Bengal is held responsible for weather conditions.

Spring (March to May):

Spring is the most preferable season for outdoor activities. The terrain is clearly visible with lush green surroundings. Clear skies, highly visible fog-free mountain views, and cool air blowing make a perfect trek experience.

Weather Rating: 5 Stars

Summer & Monsoon (June to August):

Summer and monsoons are simultaneous in Nepal. You can experience a hot day and warmer night in summer. Though the rainy season makes the whole terrain lush and green with a beautiful sight - it is quite hot and humid with frequent rains. Trekking is quite uncomfortable & difficult, thus not advisable. Mountains are hidden behind the clouds further reducing visibility. Trekking trails are muddy as well as infested with leeches.

Autumn (September to November):

The autumn starts its day with clear skies. Hardly any rain is witnessed in the entire autumn season. The aftermath of the monsoon makes the surrounding green & mountain peaks are also highly visible. Wind conditions are also perfect.

Weather Rating: 5 Stars

Winters (December to February):

Winters are extremely cold at night, with foggy mornings with a clear and pleasant afternoon. You may occasionally find snowfalls in the mountains areas with extremely cold temperatures at night. Tours can be experienced well but trekking.

Weather in the Himalayas:

The Himalayas are known to have highly unpredictable and own set of weather conditions. Hence the climatic conditions might change at a distance of a few miles. The Himalayas experience the highest humidity during the summer months. Winters and spring may witness some of the occasional rainfall on the far horizon with thunderstorms and fog covering the mountains. You might expect occasional rain clouds and foggy weather conditions.

Kathmandu:

Days of spring and autumn are quite comfortable and evenings are cool. You only need a light jacket or a simple pullover. Winters's mornings are quite foggy with clear evenings. The day remains pleasant with clear skies and the fog also lifts as the day progresses. Nights are frosty in the months of January and February. The hottest month of the year is May, just before the onset of the rainfall.
