Best Time to trek to Khopra
Nepal has two best trekking seasons in a year - spring (March-May) and Autumn (September - November). Apart from these months, Nepal experiences few extreme weather conditions, which makes trekking more challenging. The months from December to February are extremely cold and June to August are rainy.
Although it is possible to trek during these winter and summer months, the weather condition will be pretty challenging. It is quite an uncomfortable situation to trek in extreme weather conditions.
If you want to trek to Khopra and enjoy the trip, you can plan the trip in the spring or in autumn. You can experience pleasant weather, clear views, beautiful nature, and an entirely wonderful experience.
