Best touring time
Knowing a favorable time for Nepal’s accessible wheelchair tour is crucial. However, the tour takes place within the city area of Nepal; hence, travelers needn’t worry about choosing the best time. Nepal has four different seasons, and every season has its uniqueness. The Nepal-accessible wheelchair tour is favorable throughout the year.

Summer (Monsoon) from June to August is also ideal for Nepal wheelchair tours. Most touring activities occur with vehicles, so the rainfall doesn’t affect the tour. Although the season is monsoon and heavy rainfall occurs during that time, the weather in the summer is warm, and greenery all over the areas presents beautiful views. However, we recommend that wheelchair users check the weather forecast and have the proper knowledge about the area’s temperature they are touring if they decide to tour in summer.

Autumn brings clear weather conditions and mild temperatures, making it ideal for touring. The season is post-monsoon, with greenery all around the area. The clear weather provides an excellent view of the mountain ranges in the Autumn. However, it is peak season, so there will be more crowds in Autumn.
Winter (December to February) is Nepal’s coldest season. The season is favorable for those who like freezing temperatures, and the views of mountain ranges are clear in Winter. However, the Nepal-accessible wheelchair tour doesn’t take you to higher elevations; the temperature will not be freezing at lower elevations. Thus, Winter is also a good choice for the tour.
