Choose the Best Season for the Everest Base Camp Trek

Nepal is a small country in the world, although there are various climates available year-round due to geographic diversity. Normally, we have the two most popular seasons for trekking: spring (March, April & May) and autumn (September, October & November) are the best time for the Everest Base Camp Trek. The weather is pleasant with the crystal-clear sky, suitable temperatures with spectacular views, and many fast festivals.

Trek in Everest Base Camp During the spring season, see Expedition

Spring begins from March to May with appropriate weather, neither cold nor hot; it will be a clear sky with amazing scenery of sky-soaring mountains. This is the right time for Rhododendron (Nepalese National flower) to bloom and start greenery. Likewise, many festivals such as Shivaratri, Phagu Purnima (aka Holi/festivals of colors), Ghode Jatra (Festival of Hoarse), Chaite Dashain, Nepali New Year Celebration, Matatirtha Aushi (Mother’s Day), Buddha Purnima (Birth Day of Lord Buddha), Matsyendranath Jatra and many more fall in the spring season.

Spring is one of the best times to traverse the Himalayas due to favorable weather. That’s why many trekkers from different corners of the world visit the Everest Base Camp Trek. Moreover, spring is one of the best times for mountaineering, so you can see many groups in the Everest Base Camp for the Everest Expedition. On the trail, you encounter much wildlife and various vegetation inside the Sagarmatha National Park.

During the daytime, the temperature is fair (15 to 20 degrees at lower elevations and 10 to 15 degrees Celsius at the highest elevation), though the nights and mornings are slightly colder (5 to 10 degrees Celsius at a lower elevation and 0 to 5 degrees Celsius at highest elevation) and it can be dropped to zero degrees Celsius. After 3 to 4 PM, there will be clouds and falling temperatures above the 3,000-meter elevation. As this is perfect weather, there are fewer chances of canceling the flight. But the high Himalayan weather is unpredictable; it might change anytime, so we at Nepal Mother House suggest you bring with you every piece of trekking gear in case it rains or snow falls.

The best Trekking time is autumn

Autumn is the king of the trekking season in Nepal. It commences from mid-September to November with neither a hot nor cold atmosphere. Autumn is an ideal time for the Everest Base Camp Trek and Return by Helicopter. During the daytime, it will be stunning, with clear skies and spectacular scenery of mountains. During the daytime, it would be 15 to 20 degrees Celsius at a lower elevation, and at night, it would be colder, like around 10 degrees Celsius. Likewise, the temperature at the highest elevation of the trek will be 10 to 15 degrees Celsius in the daytime and at night will drop to 10 to 4 degrees Celsius. But the weather would depend on the following day’s weather circumstances.

Autumn is not only perfect for the mountain scenery, but this time many festivals like Nepal's biggest festivals, "Dashain," Tihar (Dipawali), Chhatra, etc. are in this season. If you are interested in these festivals and people's traditions and cultures, autumn is the best time to visit Nepal. You can share cultural and festival experiences while celebrating such a blissful moment. Nepal is known as a living cultural museum.
