When Is the Best Time to Visit?

The drier months, generally from April to October, can offer more manageable trekking conditions, although weather and trail conditions vary. Visiting during the rainy season may mean stronger water flow, but it can also increase the risk of slippery trails and unsafe water levels.
Arriving early gives you more time to explore without rushing.
