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.

    Shraddha Shetty

    Mumbai

    Shraddha's 6 days trip to Uttarakhand

    We had a great trip of 9 days at Uttarakhand. We finalized package from Adventure Mania team. Our Stay, food and travelling was great. Hotels and their service and food were good. Driver Rakesh Kumar was great with good driving skills. We had to travel long journey(around 300kms at a time) in mounta
    ins but his driving skills didn't made us sick at all. We and our baby enjoyed travelling and his company. Thanks for the great service. Just payment method was not proper. We were asked to pay at every hotel and also to driver, so in this we ended up giving 1100 rs extra (apart from the card charges) from the finalized package amount.

    Esha's 7 days trip to Uttarakhand

    It was an amazing trip arranged by mountain heavens. Harshita co-operated with us & shared the itinerary as per the customization that we needed. She even called us during the journey to check on us if everything was going well. Above everything, Tarun who was our driver, guide, friend everything du
    ring the entire 9 day trip & made our experiences at every destination even better. He guided us correctly, he kept checking on us if we were comfortable or needed anything. And also had fun with us like a friend. Highly recommend Tarun for every trip planned by mountain heavens.

    Pune

    Aditya's 7 days trip to Uttarakhand

    CHD helped us plan our 7 day trip to Uttarakhand (Mussorie, Tehri, Nainital, Jim Corbett, Haridwar). Had a good discussion during planning, quoted price was reasonable so we went ahead. They messaged driver details before the trip. Our driver (Vinit) was very helpful and friendly and was with us fo
    r full 7 days. His driving was safe and car was comfortable Only thing for improvement is the plan for each location mentioned all possible locations to visit which was not possible in the given duration. You will need to discuss with driver and decide what are the possible options to visit in given time. We had a great and enjoyable trip overall and would like to thank CHD for their help.

    Sreedhar's 4 days trip to Uttarakhand

    Travel agent had booked a driver who refused to pickup in Delhi, waited for 1.5 hours for driver, even hotel booking at Mussoorie was not done, I had to call him late in night after which rooms were given. Nobody from your team answers call when needed. I would rather book myself instead of going th
    rough you. Ganga Aarti at Haridwar and rafting in Rishikesh

    Biren's 7 days trip to Uttarakhand

    Nice service by Priya madam. Quick response to any queries. Reasonable price. Please check hotels and room categories before finalizing the quote. As we have good experience at sterling properties but worst experience in DLS group hotels. Very bad rooms, hospitality and food quality. Avoid DLS group
    hotels booking.
