The best times to trek are during the autumn months from September to November and the spring season from March to May. During these periods, the weather is typically clear and dry, with moderate temperatures and low rainfall, making it ideal for trekking.

In autumn, the skies are clear, providing excellent visibility of the mountains and stable weather. Spring brings mild temperatures and stable weather as well, with the added beauty of Rhododendron forests in full bloom. While winter trekking from December to February is possible, it is more challenging due to cold temperatures, snow-covered trails, and a higher risk of avalanches, particularly around the Thorong La Pass.

Monsoon months from June to August present difficulties such as heavy rainfall, landslides, and reduced visibility, making trekking more hazardous and less enjoyable.

Our guide, Ram and porter Bude waiwa were the best. We were a couple from rocky trails. Picked us up at the airport and arranged everything like permits, Pokhara flight tickets, transfer, and booking comfort lodges in Annapurna trekking and as well as responsive to all of our needs.
