    Essential Information

    Best time to go for Sarangkot Day Hiking

    Best time to go for Sarangkot Day Hiking

    Visiting Sarangkot does not require you to go there on a specific season. Hence, you can go there at any time preferred by you, or that your schedule allows. As Pokhara is located in the hills, there aren’t any risks of going through a certain extreme weather conditions during a certain season. Winters are cold, and summers are hot as well. However, both seasons are bearable and do not make you go through struggles in any way whatsoever.

    Sarangkot Day hiking is, however, better avoided during the monsoon seasons. Though a lot of people have been hiking here, even in the rainiest of seasons, rainy seasons often lead to slippery and muddy roads along the way. Rain never allows a hiker to be comfortable through his 3 to 4 hours of hike. Otherwise, any other dry season, with the right amount of clothes, can be perfect for a Sarangkot day hiking.
