Bhutan is a year-round destination, but spring and autumn offer the finest weather and the biggest festivals.
Spring (March–May)
Rhododendrons and jacaranda bloom, valleys are green, and the Paro Tshechu draws crowds — a beautiful, lively season.
Autumn (September–November)
Clear skies, crisp air and the famous Thimphu Tshechu make autumn the classic time for Himalayan views and the Tiger's Nest hike.
Winter and monsoon
Winter is cold but clear and quiet; the summer monsoon brings rain to the south, though central valleys stay pleasant.
- Best: spring (Mar–May) & autumn (Sep–Nov)
- Festivals: Paro & Thimphu Tshechus
- Winter is quiet and clear
- Book festival dates well ahead
