Best Time To Visit Uttarakhand

Plan your trip during best season to experience the best of this stunning destination

Uttarakhand can be visited any time of the year. While destinations like Nainital and Mussoorie remain reachable throughout the year, some remote valleys and higher altitudes can be hard to get to for an occasional traveller. The Jim Corbett National Park extends near lower Himalayan foothills and thereby, it experiences milder winters and heavier rainfall. For adventure activities such as trekking and paragliding, March–April and September–October are ideal months as the weather is mostly clear and temperatures are mild.

Whether you’re planning a romantic honeymoon or a spiritual journey, the best time to visit Uttarakhand is the summer season. The temperature in Uttarakhand in winter can get really low, with some places experiencing snowfall. 

It is not advisable to plan a travel during monsoon in Uttarakhand. However, monsoon season is the best time to visit Valley of Flowers in Uttarakhand, this is when all colourful flowers are in the full bloom. At higher elevations, there is abundant snowfall during winter in Uttarakhand. Auli near Joshimath is a popular ski resort in Uttarakhand. 

Since more than 80 percent of the state has mountainous terrain, Uttarakhand is visited by travellers looking to beat the heat of lower plains or to enjoy snowfall in Uttarakhand. The state witnesses a three-season climate pattern – Summer, Autumn, and Winter – with a short burst of spring. Dehradun, with its proximity to the river plains, has hotter and drier summer compared to alpine regions. Plenty of springs and waterfalls near Dehradun are ideal to visit in summer. The Valley of Flowers speckled with a variety of fresh blooms, wandering shepherds and nomadic tribes, and the oncoming of tourist season in Uttarakhand make the summer season worth witnessing.

Climate in Uttarakhand

Summer Season in Uttarakhand

Summer in Uttarakhand is synonymous with life. Once the flowers reach their bloom, people of

Uttarakhand indulge in all sorts of festivities and daily chores that winter puts on hold. The famous Char

Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand lasts from May to September. Early spring around mid-April is ideal for

getting the best deals on packages and hotels in Uttarakhand. So, if you’re planning a trek in Uttarakhand

or a romantic getaway, summer is the best time to visit Uttarakhand.

Monsoon Season in Uttarakhand

Monsoon in Uttarakhand lasts usually from mid-June to September. The higher Himalayan region

witnesses heavy rainfall in these months. While Dehradun, Nainital, and Rishikesh also experience strong

showers. Monsoon is a favorable season to plan a trip to Uttarakhand only if you don’t mind being wet all

the time. However, hotel prices and other costs are lower as monsoon is considered a low tourist season in

Uttarakhand.

Winter Season in Uttarakhand

Lasting from November through February, winter is the best season to visit Uttarakhand for honeymoon

and family vacations. Nainital in winter is a picture-perfect hill station to visit with your better half if

you’re looking for a rendezvous. Rishikesh – the spiritual and rafting capital of India – is visited by scores

of travellers looking to enjoy camping and white water rafting. Mussoorie and its nearby hill stations offer

all the rewards a family can ask for in a holiday. The Jim Corbett National Park in winter is another great

destination to visit as there are higher odds of spotting wildlife on a winter’s day. So, Uttarakhand in

winter is as heavenly as the Kashmir Valley.

    Amit's 3 days trip to Uttarakhand

    Hotels were ok, they provided us a room for couple with a common gate between room at Jim Corbett,can you imagine the situation? Over all rooms were good but check in timings could be according to our arrival still travel company managed to make over stay early in other room, so thanks for them, Dr
    iver was rude most of the time like we were like a lugage for him, also he had some communal and political talks which we want to avoid in vacation.... But over all satisfied, not a bad experience Spotting tiger in Jim Corbett was unforgettable

    Arantxa Cardozo

    Pune

    Arantxa's 6 days trip to Uttarakhand

    Vijaya was a good agent providing us the best package and stays. But we could visit some more places as we had the time but we were refrained from seeing. Dhanaulti stay was extremely chilled. No heater at all. Mussoorie stay was fabulous and the sight seeing was good. Nanital stay was awesome and t
    he food. At Nainital we wanted to visit some more places but we couldn't as it wasn't in the itenary. Secondly, we were charged 2000 extra at the trip by the cab driver for cab maintenance. We had paid the entire amount before time still we were charged. Unfortunately we couldn't get to witness snow cos of the El nino effect in atmosphere. But overall Vijaya gave us a good package and she was helpful in the trip but restricted to boundaries so couldn't give us an extra edge.
