Questions travellers ask
Is May a good time to visit Langtang & Gosaikunda?
May is warm and good at altitude, with Gosaikunda fully thawed and the yak herders moving up to summer pastures around Kyanjin. Haze and pre-monsoon cloud build through the month, so distant views are less sharp than in autumn. The lower forests are hot and humid below 2,000 m, and leeches appear on wet days late in May. It remains a good month for Yala Peak, Tserko Ri and the Gosaikunda and Helambu traverse.
What is the weather like in Langtang & Gosaikunda in May?
Kyanjin Gompa 2 to 15 °C, Syabrubesi 15 to 28 °C, warm, hazy. Conditions change fast with altitude, so check the mountain forecast a few days before you travel.
