Nepal

If you want to visit Nepal, May is the best time to travel for many reasons. May has ideal weather for hiking and sightseeing. The June rains have not yet begun in the Himalayan Mountains, and the skies are clear. Because this is such a popular month for mountain treks, you'll want to book ahead of time to ensure that you get the lodging and hiking tours that you want.

For decades Nepal stood proud as the world’s top trekking and mountaineering destination. There are various hikes to choose from in Nepal. The hike to Mount Everest base camp, where you'll see various Sherpa villages and Buddhist monasteries, is the most popular. Another option is the Annapurna Circuit trek, which gives great views of the area as well as the chance to see some of Nepal's cultural diversity along the route.
