Best Season for this Trip:

Honestly, autumn (September to November) and spring (March to April) are the best. In autumn, the air feels crisp and the landscape bursts with color.
Spring's got blooming flowers, clear skies, and everything just feels fresh. The temperatures stay mild, so you’re comfortable, and the Himalayan views are unreal.
