Nepal
The best time to travel in Nepal is in the spring or fall. In the spring, the months of March through May are generally good. In the fall, the months of October through early December are good. These timings can vary depending on the highest altitudes that the treks reach and whether or not they are mainly in the north side of the Himalaya range, like the Upper Mustang region.
