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.

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.

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.
