Best season Possible with precautions
🌸 Spring (Mar–May)
Rhododendron forests in bloom, stable weather, excellent mountain views. The most popular and rewarding trekking season.
🍂 Autumn (Sep–Nov)
Post-monsoon clarity, crisp air, and crystal-clear mountain views. A fantastic season with stable skies and lush green trails.
🌧 Monsoon (Jun–Aug)
Trails are lush and green. Trekking is possible with proper rain gear and a flexible mindset — teahouses remain open and trails are quieter. Expect some rain and misty views.
❄️ Winter (Dec–Feb)
Trekking is possible with the right cold-weather gear. Trails are uncrowded, skies are often clear, and the snow-dusted landscapes are stunning. Some high passes may require extra care.

"Best way to experience Nepal"

We did the 14 days Nepal budget tour and we could not be more happy with our choice. In only 2 weeks we visited Kathmandu, Chitwan national park, Pokhara and did a 5 day trek in the Annapurna region. The organization was flawless (like a swiss clock). We felt safe and welcomed in every place. Our guides Harka (Chitwan) and Ganesh (Pokhara and trek) + Bishal (our porter) did an outstanding job. We recommend them and the whole trip 100%. It was much better than we could have imagined. In the end, we recommand everyone to visit the beautiful places from Nepal and meet its warm and welcoming people.

"Awesome Experience!!!"

Mingmar sherpa dai was our trek lead along-with Tenzing dai, Janak and Siddharth. All of them really helped us during entire the trek. Whether it is stay, food or assistance for any additional request. I would highly recommend them as trek leads if you are planning for the trek in and around Nepal. Specially EBC.

"Best Experience Of My Life!"

It was my first trekking experience in Nepal and Himalayan Social Journey made the entire experience memorable. They are very professional and will help you at every point. A special word of thanks to Sushma, who helped a lot throughout and was my go-to person. My guide Dinesh was a gem and so was the porter, Ramkrishna. Dinesh saved my life a few times (literally) and he is so efficient and helpful that it is hard to put in words. Want togo back to Nepal through HSJ, there is a lot more to do. If you are planning any activity in Nepal you may blindly book with HSJ and be assured of an experience of a lifetime. These guys are more than a tour planner, they are your friend. philosopher, guide all in one!
