Monsoon Season - We do not generally recommend this tour during the monsoon season, as the trekking is hard work in the hot & rainy weather, and there is a high risk of landslides causing long delays to the overland journeys.

Good Trekking - Late September to November are the best and most popular time for trekking in Nepal, with good visibility and fine weather. Wildlife viewing is good in Chitwan, though the elephant grass gets longer as the season progresses, reducing the possibility to see some species.

Winter Season - This is a nice time to do this tour, as the weather is good, and not too hot. While the nights are cold during the trek, the snow on the ground and low number of trekkers makes it a very pleasant time to visit. Migratory birds start arriving in Chitwan from late December onwards, and viewing here is OK.

Good Viewing - Late February to May is an ideal time to do this tour, as the weather is good, visibility is good for the trekking, and the elephant grass is cut in Chitwan National park during this season which gives better wildlife viewing opportunities. It does get hot towards the end of the season, so March & April are ideal months.
