One of the main issues that worries travelers who want to travel to Nepal in August is the climate issue. Yes, it is true that from June to September, it is the rainy season in the country. But this does not mean that it is raining all day or that the rain is a real impediment to enjoy and trek in Nepal.
In general, the weather seasons in Nepal are divided into:
Most of the holiday seasons for western countries coincide with the rainy season of Nepal. This is the period in which the monsoon appears.
For example, in the Kathmandu Valley or especially in Pokhara rain tend to be more intense than in other mountainous areas. In fact, when it exceeds 3500 meters, rain volume in Nepal tend to descend considerably. For this reason, if you want to do a trekking in Nepal a> in august, we encourage you to go for it!
But, even if it rains in the lower areas or in the main cities, the temperature does not go down. The temperature is characterized by being hot and humid. The sun is coming out intermittently combining rainy moments with moments of sun and clear sky. All this means that, although it is a bit more uncomfortable due to the rainy season, making a trip to Nepal in August is totally plausible.
During these months of the year, rain ceases in Nepal and, therefore, good trips can be done in all regions of the country. But, yes, among all the months of the year that are included here, the most recommended for travelling are during autumn or spring. The reason is that these seasons, allow the temperature to be very pleasant (neither cold nor too much heat), and landscapes are full of colours and nature that, really, is worth seeing.
In this other post we talk in detail about when it is better to travel to Nepal. However, although the month of August is included in the rainy season, you can also enjoy the trip. Especially if you come to do a trekking!
