October’s weather in detail
If you're planning a trip to Nepal, October is a great time to visit as the weather is pretty much perfect. Days are characterised by pleasantly mild temperatures in the low to mid 20s. The air is clear and the sunshine is bright, so spectacular views of the vast Himalaya are guaranteed. With the weather so good, it's not surprising that trekking routes can be busy and teahouses crowded, but don't worry, there's still plenty of space for everyone. Wildlife in the national parks is abundant and easy to spot at this time of year. The pleasant temperatures are also ideal for exploring Nepal's ancient historic towns with their wing-roofed temples, hidden squares and frenetic markets.
