Weather in round Manaslu trek:

The weather conditions in Manaslu is primary aspect that makes this walk more challenging is the weather in the Manaslu region. Six climate zones, with permanent snow lines over 5000 meters, are included in the Manaslu protection area. It is therefore nearly impossible to go trekking in the winter. This region’s temperature fluctuates according to its climate zone. Many tea establishments are closed in the winter because of the extremely cold weather. Furthermore, the excessive snowfall has rendered Larkya La Pass impassable. For you, inclement weather, windstorms, and ice paths can be problematic. The nights and mornings can be extremely cold due to a sharp drop in temperature, even though the days are usually mild. The trekking path passes through hilly areas that are vulnerable to monsoon-related landslides and landfalls. Thus, trekking in the winter and monsoon seasons should never be considered.

Autumn and spring provide the best weather for hiking. All year long, though, the weather in this area is erratic. The Manaslu region’s weather can occasionally astound visitors. We can be aware of the unpredictable weather in the Manaslu region and make appropriate preparations, even though I don’t have a weather statistic.

The Manaslu Circuit is open for trekking all year, but the experience varies greatly based to the season. Nepal has four seasons that are separate as below.

Let’s explore what makes each season special.

• Summer/Monsoon Season (June-August)

• Autumn Season (September–November)

• Winter Season (December – February).

• Spring Season (March – May)

Spring Season (March-May):

Springtime is one of the greatest times to go Manaslu Circuit Trekking. It is the pre-monsoon season, with lush vegetation, scenic surroundings, and steady weather. As spring arrives, everything returns to life after a long winter. Streams, waterfalls, and rivers melt. The region sees fresh buds, and the days become steadily longer.

Manaslu Circuit Trail welcomes visitors. The visibility above the Himalayas improves. You see beautiful landscapes. The Manaslu Region is frigid for the first 4-5 weeks of spring, but gradually warms up as foliage returns. The weather is beautiful, and the hiking path quality improves.

Monsoon/Summer Season (June-August):

Because of the poor weather and temperature, the monsoon/summer season is considered an offseason for hiking in the Himalayas. Hot days in the lower section of the valley, along with regular showers, add to the hardships of the Manaslu circuit trek. Hiking routes are muddy and treacherous, with leeches and insects.

During the monsoon/summer season, the weather is highly variable. Landslides are common in the Manaslu area. Trekking around this time might be difficult due to the weather conditions. On a positive side, the entire region abounds with plants and birds. So, if you are interested in biodiversity, now is the time to investigate life in the Manaslu Region.

Autumn Season (September-November):

Autumn is festival season in Nepal, and the weather is ideal for the Manaslu Circuit trek. The fall season is ideal for hiking due to the long daylight hours, temperate climate, consistent weather, and fresh air. Thousands of trekkers come all across the Himalayas to see its breathtaking beauty and enjoy mountain adventures.

Streams and rivers are full with water. Monsoon air is clean. The weather begins to stabilize, and the vistas are stunning. The daytime is long, and the trail conditions are good. The climate progressively becomes drier, and a tinge of chill begins to permeate the air. You’ll also get to witness some of Nepal’s largest festivals.

Winter Season (December – February):

 Winter is the offseason for hiking, especially the Manaslu circuit. The weather is frigid throughout this season. The temperature goes below freezing, and the route is completely covered with snow. The majority of teahouses shut, and just a few continue to provide modest food and lodging. You are well equipped to attempt the Manaslu circuit trek in winter.

The climate becomes chilly, dry, and foggy. Views are obscured if the sky is not clear, which is often. However, the frozen splendor of nature will leave you speechless.
Your trip is during the winter season!

Temperature Estimate in the Manaslu Circuit:

The Manaslu Circuit offers an overview of weather conditions during the popular spring and autumn seasons. The Daily Chart shows daily maximum and minimum temperatures, whereas the Monthly Chart gives a comprehensive picture of temperature fluctuations in other seasons. Although Manaslu rarely receives heavy monsoon rains, it is recommended to bring a rain jacket due to the unpredictable nature of mountainous regions. Packing for the worst-case scenario ensures that you are prepared for any unexpected weather changes that may occur during your trek.

Driving condition in Manaslu:

Until now, the route from Kathamdnu to Arughat is concrete and simple to access, and the road from Arughat to Machha Khola is rough, with numerous bumps, but stunning waterfalls and landscapes keep you wanting to view nature.
The route from Dharapani to Besisahar is equally rough and bumpy, but Marsyangdi valley and natural waterfalls are the primary attractions, and will wake you up. The roads from Besisahar to Kathmandu are in decent condition.
