Deciding when to travel to Tibet is an important decision especially if you are travelling to Mt. Kailash. There are no constant responses. Covering about one-eighths of the total Chinese territory, Tibet contains seven major cities and regions. Discovering dissimilar autonomy, each place has its dissimilar climate and temperature. Thus, the best time to visit those places of attention also diverges.
The high elevation and atmosphere in Tibet consent the sunshine to assault the earth with rare concentration. To defend your eyes and skin, you’d better bring sunscreen with the lowest sun defense factor of 15, and sunglasses are also useful. Lip creams and balms with SPF grades, zinc, and oxide creams provide ideal block-out.
Usually speaking, the period from May to September is the best season for a tour in Tibet. However, a winter tour in Tibet could be comfortable as well, which depends on the route. In winter, Tibet has fewer tourists, so you can relish the stunning scenery spontaneously. And also May to September is the best season for a Kailash Yatra.
Of the months from May to September, I recommend June, and September as the finest months to go to Kailash. These months characteristically have a clear climate permitting great views of the mountain. The summer months (July and August) at Kailash are drier than in Lhasa and other areas of Central Tibet, however, thousands of Hindu travelers typically go to Kailash then. The trek around Kailash can be very busy in July and August, therefore I recommend evading those months.
There are pros and cons to every season. You can make your choice based on its suitability for you. Leaf Holidays Treks and Expedition is there in your service whatever the month or season.
Trekking in Nepal is a life-changing experience – the pristine nature, the spectacular grandeur of the high Himalayas, the religious and cultural diversity make it unique and so special. I highly recommend using a competent and reliable treking company such as Leaf Holidays Treks & Expedition to make the journey trouble-free and memorable. I can personally recommend Gopal Thapa who was our guide on the Everest Base Camp trek in April 2014. He ensured that we had a hassle-free trek as he organised all our the logistics, accommodation and meals and his local knowledge contributed to the richness of our Nepali adventure. Go trekking in Nepal, it will be part of your life forever!
I traveled to Everest Base camp with Gopal in 2014 and I honestly recommend his guiding services. He was always very friendly and professional during the trek. He really took care of our trekking group and he often went above and beyond to help us reach our goal. We had such a beautiful, life-changing experience in the Himalayas- the landscape is so amazing and the people are very kind. I will definitely be returning for more adventures in the future.
Had the pleasure of being guided by Gopal in 2014. Our trek to Everest base camp was such a wonderful experience and was only made better by his knowledge and connections. We would have never made it without him. He was always there to lend a helping hand in times of need. I would definitely recommend Gopal and his company to plan and guide your trip to this beautiful area of the world. Read More
