Trekking in Monsoon: The Best Monsoon Trekking Routes in Nepal

Nepal is a well-known country for exploring the Himalayas and its natural beauty in the world. There are four seasons in Nepal; Spring, Autumn, Summer, and Winter. We all know that Spring and autumn are the best seasons to visit Nepal for trekking experience as well as other activities. You can do a trek in Monsoon season too. We learn about the best monsoon trekking routes in Nepal in this blog. June to August is the Monsoon Season in Nepal. As we all know Nepal is one of the most popular destinations for adventure travel. Autumn (September to November) and Spring (March to May) are the best time to visit the country for all adventure outdoor activities. During this period, many trekkers and adventure lovers do adventure trekking as well as day hiking, rafting, paragliding, safaris, etc and Mountaineers climb the highest peaks of the World including Mount Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu, Makalu, Manaslu, Dhaulagiri, Annapurna I, Kanchenjunga, Ama Dablam and various small peaks. 

Normally, most tourists come in the dry season because it is right after the monsoon, the countryside is green and lush, the air is sparkling clean and the Himalayas are perfect to see. Fewer people visit the country during Monsoon time. We all know the reason. Monsoon means raining every day which makes it hard to walk, no good views because of the hazy and cloudy weather. Although there are many reasons why people don’t want to travel during Monsoon, we are focusing on some of the adventures in Nepal, which can be more beautiful during Monsoon time only. Nepal has a vast diversity in geography. We have some routes for adventure trekking in Monsoons such as the Dolpo region and the Mustang region. These areas are perfect to visit in the Monsoon because we get very little rain. Also, rafting would be more adventurous in Monsoon than the dry season because the rapid in a river is very high and risky. 

In the Dolpo Region, there are two main routes for trekking i.e. Upper Dolpo Trekking and Lower Dolpo Trekking. This unbeaten and unspoiled trekking offers a spectacular view of the Himalayas and high-altitude settlements with incredible landscapes.

In the Mustang Region, Upper Mustang Trekking offers the spectacular Kali Gandaki village, centuries-old monasteries, and the royal palace at Lo-Manthang, unspoiled villages, and a culture, similar landscape to Tibet. 

Nepal Gateway Trekking offers various tours and high-adventure trekking in Nepal Himalaya with a flower research program during the Monsoon season.
