Planning A Trip To Nagarkot? Here's a snapshot of Nagarkot weather and the best time to visit Nagarkot
The village of Nagarkot, located in the Bhaktapur district of Nepal, is the most ideal setting for people who visit the country solely to enjoy the Himalayas in all their glory. Resting along the ridges of Kathmandu Valley, Nagarkot endows its residents with the most extensive views of the mountains from all directions, and allows you to enjoy these views from the comfort of numerous lodging options on offer in this town.
Climatic conditions in Nagarkot will drastically affect the level of pleasure you can derive from the panoramas of the region, as the clouds are often seen obstructing some the best views of the hills and countryside. For this reason, the months of October, November, March and April are considered the best times to visit Nagarkot. Read on to know more about the weather conditions in Nagarkot.

Spring can be considered one of the best times to visit Nagarkot. The cold winter temperature starts rising to give way to a pleasant and enjoyable climate, with a colorful and blossomed valley and spectacular views of the hills. Most of the daytime activities like paragliding and hiking are also enjoyed to their full extent in these months.
Summer (May-September)

Summers are not the best time to be in Nagarkot; the heat makes outdoor activities and exploration difficult, and the heavy rain during the monsoons do not make for an enjoyable sightseeing experience. Even when it’s not raining, the dark clouds hang heavy and low, obstructing most of the views that are normally supposed to be the highlight of a trip to Nagarkot.

After the monsoons let up, there is a brief period of cool weather paired with perfect clear skies that can be called an autumn episode. The month of October witnesses ideal temperatures with a pristine ambiance that is wonderful for viewing the Himalayas and the mountainside. However, from November onwards the temperatures start dipping rapidly; the high levels of humidity that last all year long are responsible for a lot of mist and fog, especially during the mornings that drastically reduce visibility around the mountains and valleys.
