What is the best time of year to do the Chomolhari Trek? Why?

All the Chomolhari Trek departure dates listed on our website are scheduled during the best possible time of year, taking into account weather conditions as well as local festivals.

In general, the best seasons for the Chomolhari Trek are spring (March to May) and autumn (October to November):

• Spring: While March can still feel like winter at higher elevations, conditions improve steadily. For the best balance of stable weather and blooming landscapes, April and May are ideal.
• Autumn: Although autumn officially begins in September, the tail end of the monsoon can sometimes bring rain into early October. For clearer skies and more reliable trekking conditions, mid-October through November is the best period.
