  Holi at Lakeside

  Spring trekking season

  1 Mar – 15 MayTemporada de senderosMucha genteReserva pronto

  Lakeside is a staging post rather than a destination for two months: Poon Hill, Mardi Himal and the Annapurna Base Camp trail all start from here. Warmer than autumn and hazier by the week.

• Naturaleza

  Rhododendron above Ghorepani

  15 Mar – 30 Abr · normalmenteFlores silvestres

  The forest between Ulleri and Ghorepani turns red and pink for about six weeks, which is the whole reason the Poon Hill walk is a spring trip rather than an autumn one.

  Monsoon on the lake

  10 Jun – 20 Sep · normalmenteRiesgo

  The wettest city in Nepal, by a distance. Fewa rises, the Annapurnas are behind cloud for weeks, the trails leech, and the highway from Kathmandu closes for landslides.
