It is a known fact that Nepal is a Himalayan country with eight of the fourteen world’s tallest mountain, with the tallest among all, Mount Everest. Although Nepal is mainly located in the Himalayas, there are also parts which belong to Indo-Gangetic Plain. This is the very reason why Nepal has such tremendous geographic diversity despite being small in size and, so it’s climatic condition. The weather may differ in different places given to its topography. The lowland of the Terai region which lies in the subtropical southern part of Nepal has a hot and humid climate that can rise above 45 degrees Celsius in the summer. The hill region’s climate is an average all the year. The climate of the Himalayas area is cold all the year, and the temperature even drops below minus degrees Celsius in winter.
Nepal has a varied geography and has four seasons: summer, autumn, winter, and spring. You can visit Nepal in any season you like. However, the best season depends on for what purpose you are visiting. We will talk in detail about the seasons and the best adventures you can do during that time.

Summer is the hottest season among all; it is the known fact. This season falls between May and June in Nepal, May being the hottest month. And then comes the monsoon in late June and the whole of July. Due to the heavy rain, roads become muddy, in which trekking is tough, and there will be leeches too.
