Activities to do in Nepal during the Spring. After a long winter, spring is now finally here, bringing with it beautiful flowers, pleasant weather, longer days, and opportunities for exciting adventures. March through May marks the beginning of spring, which comes before the monsoon season. The springtime months in Nepal offer tourists the best weather. The lovely sky and meadows filled with valleys full of flowers provide the most pleasant environment for every visitor. The Terai plains, the hills from Kathmandu to Pokhara, and the higher Himalayas have quite different climates in this country. Some places are still quite hot except for the villages tucked away in the high mountains. We’ve put up a list of springtime things you can do right now in Nepal.

Cherish Every Bit of Celebrations & Occasions:

Nepal is a dynamic country rich in diverse cultures and traditions. Regardless of whether a person follows Buddhism or Hinduism, Nepali holidays are always met with great enthusiasm and are thus based on the lunar calendar. You can also indulge yourself in Festival Trek in Nepal. When visiting Nepal in April, you might catch a peek at the following celebrations.

Rato Machchendranath:

During the well-known Patan festival, which is celebrated with tremendous intensity and excitement, a god statue is hauled through the streets of Nepal for many days. To witness Rato Machchendranath while in Nepal, it continues to be a popular place to visit in April.

Bisket Jatra:

A lot of fun and frolic are had during the Nepali New Year holiday known as Bisket Jatra. It continues to be a very exciting event in several well-known places, but it is still the main draw in Bhaktapur, where the Biskat Jatra Chariot festival is held. Four days before the Nepali New Year starts, the Jatra begins. It truly is a visual feast.

Buddha Jayanti:

The Buddhist community in Kathmandu celebrates Buddha Jayanti at the Boudhanath stupa. This sacred occasion draws a sizable crowd; thus it is celebrated with tremendous fervor.

Sightseeing in Kathmandu:

One of the greatest destinations to visit in the spring is Nepal’s capital city, Kathmandu. The weather is pleasant, neither too hot nor too cold, so you could have a lovely, leisurely tour of the valley. Exploring and touring the historically, culturally, and artistically significant regions is a viable option. These places include the internationally recognized Pashupatinath Temple, Bouddhanath Stupa, Kathmandu Durbar Square, Swoyambhunath, Patan, Bhaktapur, and others. Given that you will see people enjoying a variety of festivals, now is the best time to visit Nepal if you like to gain insight into the local way of life. You are welcome to participate in these festivities and have fun. Once more, you can make brief trips to places like Chandragiri Hills and Nagarkot to uncover serenity and peace away from the bustle of the city.

The perfect weather for trekking:

With temperatures frequently hovering around 20 degrees Celsius at higher altitudes, Nepal’s weather is ideal for trekking. This time of year is considered the best for trekking in Nepal. The amazing trails this month have trekkers everywhere in awe. Even at the highest altitudes, days usually begin bright and sunny and nights don’t get too cold.

Nepal welcomes the Spring season as the Winter season comes to an end. Following the winter, trees develop new buds, and this is the time of year when flowers bloom. The busiest trekking season runs from March through May. After autumn, spring is the second-best season to visit Nepal because the weather is ideal—not too hot or cold. It’s also the flower-blooming season, with Nepal’s national flower, the rhododendron, sweeping the rising elevations with its brilliant color and beauty. The High Mountains’ way of life is intriguing, and the flora, animals, and mountain vistas are all breathtaking.

Everest Mountain Flight:

The finest season for mountain flights, according to many, is spring in Nepal, despite claims to the contrary. The mountains are covered in snow, and the air feels incredibly clean. It is advised to take a mountain flight to see Mount Everest, but if you prefer a closer view, you can opt for the Everest Heli Tour and travel anywhere you like. You may travel anywhere you want in the spring because of the clear skies and light winds.

White Water Rafting:

The two most well-known destinations for white water rafting in Nepal are Pokhara and Kathmandu. In April, you may enjoy this thrilling activity amidst the white, bubbling rivers of this Himalayan country. The long, clear Trisuli River, Bhote Kosi River, and Seti River provide an amazing river rafting experience while surrounded by lovely mountains.

Yoga retreat:

Spiritual travel is mostly overlooked in Nepal. You may enroll in a lot of renowned yoga schools. How wonderful would it be to set up your mat, do your poses, and practice meditation in the middle of the world’s largest mountains or a lush forest? If you think this sounds good, take a springtime trip to Nepal and engage in several kinds of yoga activities. If you seek a more spiritual experience, living in a monastery will provide you with an unmatched experience.

Hiking:

Short hikes around bustling cities like Kathmandu or Pokhara are ideal in the spring for those who don’t want to spend days trekking in Nepal. Visit these hills early in the morning to witness rhododendrons in bloom, a variety of birds, and crisp air. You may catch a peek of the mountain if the air quality in the city is clean, but it is only a bonus since the springtime breeze and the sound of the woods will entice you to go hiking once a week.
