Illustrated Atlas of the Himalaya: Temperature

Content Provider	Digital Himalaya
Description	January is the coldest month of the year in Nepal. However, away from the mountains, day time weather is typically dry and sunny with pleasant temperatures in the mid-20s that are ideal for wandering around Kathmandu’s ancient temples or exploring bustling markets. The wildlife hotspot of Chitwan National Park, famed for its one-horned rhino, also experiences clement weather at this time of year. Late January is a particularly good time to see wildlife in Chitwan as villagers start to cut back the tall phanta grasses found on the plains, which improves visibility no end. July is one of the wettest months of the year in Nepal. With the monsoon in full swing it's not a great time of year to travel. Roads sometimes get washed away, particularly in the mountains, and internal flights can get cancelled due to bad visibility. Pokhara in particular gets a lot of rain - nearly three times as much as Kathmandu. It does rain most days in Kathmandu too, but mornings are often dry and nearby ancient gems like Bhaktapur are still easy to reach. The mighty Himalaya provides shelter for certain sections of the Annapurna circuit around Jomsom, so whilst other parts of the country are inundated, trekking here is feasible with pleasant temperatures in the low 20s. You'll probably still find those mountain views obscured by clouds some of the time, but you'll also have the trails to yourself.
