Questions travellers ask
Is March a good time to visit Everest & Khumbu?
March opens the spring season. Rhododendrons begin to flower around Phakding and below Tengboche, and mornings are usually clear, with cloud building after midday. Nights above 4,500 m are still very cold. From late March the busy-season rule has sent scheduled Lukla flights from Ramechhap, so expect a night-time drive. Expedition teams start arriving, and the passes open as snow settles.
