This is also best for the sightings, as the skies are clear, viewing perfect and panoramic sights of the Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Nilgiri peaks. It will be a very apt season for adventurous people and those who love nature.

Autumn is another perfect time for this trek because it has stable weather, moderate temperatures, and crystal-clear skies. The dust and pollution brought in by the monsoon rains wash away, making the mountains wonderfully beautiful. Temperatures fluctuate from 5°C to 15°C; hence, comfortable for trekking. In addition, the greatest festivals of Nepal, Dashain and Tihar, fall on this season, and the rich culture and tradition of the people are enjoyed by the trekkers.

Winter (December to February), It gets below -10°C during winter, really cold, and snowfall buries everything in Muktinath. The routes may be icy or blocked for trekking. However, winter trekking is really peaceful due to the crisp mountain air, with much fewer crowds on the trails. You can continue this trek in proper preparations with the right winter gear, especially in its lower altitude parts like Jomsom and Kagbeni.

Monsoon, June to August, As high rainfall, slippery trails, and high possibilities of landslides occur in this season, it is also not good for trekking. High humidity still remains in the region, although the leeches on the lower trails appear commonly. Although it receives very few rains, as the Upper Mustang Region lies in the rain shadow of the Himalayas, it may be possible for experienced trekkers. Consequently, it makes valleys green and attractive with different beauties.
