Questions travellers ask
Is March a good time to visit Kathmandu Valley?
March is warm, dry and good for every kind of valley trip. Rhododendrons start to bloom on the rim hills around Chandragiri and Shivapuri, and the valley rim trek is very pleasant. Haze builds late in the month and can soften mountain views, so plan sunrise viewpoints for the first half. Shivaratri sometimes falls in early March, and Holi colours the streets around the full moon.

Kathmandu 8 to 25 °C, mostly dry, some haze later in the month. Conditions change fast with altitude, so check the mountain forecast a few days before you travel.
