One can do so in some style, as scattered throughout Nepal in areas of great natural beauty, where number of exclusive properties are there, the portfolio includes ridge top lodges where one can enjoy panoramic view of the mountains without having to move from the son lounger, remote riverside camps in the country’s lush ‘middle Hills’, and wildlife lodges hidden deep in the subtropical jungles cloaking the country’s southern terai where one can search on elephant back for one horned rhinos, sloth bear and the Royal Bengal Tiger.
Depending on your plans Nepal can be visited during the whole year. But most comfortably tourists feel their best when visiting Nepal from October to November, which is the major season. You then have perfect weather, clear blue sky’s and fantastic views of the mountaintops. In the spring say late February until half March it is also perfect for visiting Nepal. During the winter-season (December and January) it is still nice to visit Nepal, as there are few tourists and airfares are usually much cheaper. There is ample sunshine, but be aware; as soon as the sun sets, the temperature cools down within 10 minutes and can drop from 21 degrees centigrade to sometimes freezing point.
