The monsoon season brings cooler temperatures and transforms the valleys into a verdant paradise. Festivals such as the Minjar Fair and Phulaich Festival add cultural vibrancy to the region.
However, heavy rainfall during these months may disrupt trekking, paragliding and other adventure activities. If you enjoy scenic beauty and fewer crowds, this can still be a rewarding time to visit.
December to February – Winter Wonderland
