Summers, from March to June, are pleasantly warm with temperatures ranging from 15°C to 30°C. The weather is perfect for outdoor activities like boating, birdwatching, and trekking.

The monsoon season, spanning from July to September, brings heavy rainfall that transforms the landscape into a vibrant green paradise. While the misty views are breathtaking, visitors should be mindful of slippery roads and a higher risk of landslides.

Winter, from October to February, is cool and dry. Temperatures can drop to around 2°C, making it necessary to pack heavy woollens.
