Best Time to Visit Pokhara
Peak Season (September-November) Clear mountain views, perfect weather conditions (15-25°C), and excellent visibility make autumn ideal for sightseeing. Festival season brings additional cultural experiences at temples.
Spring Season (March-May) Rhododendron blooms, warm temperatures (20-30°C), and clear skies provide excellent conditions. Pre-monsoon period offers spectacular mountain photography opportunities.
Winter Season (December-February) Cool temperatures (5-20°C) with crystal clear mountain views. Perfect for photography but requires warm clothing during early morning and evening hours.
Avoid Monsoon (June-August) Heavy rainfall, cloudy skies, and poor mountain visibility reduce sightseeing quality. However, lush green landscapes and fewer crowds appeal to some visitors.
