The weather in Bhutan depends upon the altitude. In the northern parts of the country where mountains rise to 7,000m, weather conditions are similar to the Arctic. Southwards, the weather is hot and humid in the summer and cool in winter. The monsoon rains are usually heavy. Winters can be a good time to visit the lower parts, but then the highest areas are freezing.
The best times to visit Bhutan are spring (March-May) and autumn ( September – November) when the weather is warm, dry, and sunny but always throw in a couple of warm clothes into your traveling gear when you travel to Bhutan regardless of the season
Bhutan has four seasons:
- Spring(March, April and May)
- Summer(June, July and August)
- Autumn(September, October and November)
- Winter(December, January and February)
