- Nepal Adventure Trekking & Tour Operator
Nepal's climate is a tapestry of diversity, shaped by its altitude and topographical features. In the southern Terai region, a tropical climate prevails, with hot summers and mild winters. As you ascend into the central hills and valleys, a temperate climate takes hold. The northern mountain ranges, including the formidable Himalayas, boast a cold and alpine climate.
From June to September, the monsoon season blankets much of Nepal with heavy rainfall, particularly in the Terai and central regions. However, the ideal time to visit for trekking and mountaineering is from October to May when clear skies and mild temperatures prevail.
Nepal offers a wealth of experiences, from exploring its rich cultural heritage to engaging in outdoor activities amid its breathtaking natural landscapes. To assist travelers in planning their journeys, we've compiled a temperature chart for various altitudes and months based on our expertise.
