March to May and September to November are considered the best times to visit Bhutan, and many of the most popular cultural festivals take place during these months. Spring visitors will be able to experience the swathes of wild rhododendrons blooming along mountain trails, whereas autumn tends to yield the clearest views of the Himalaya. Summer brings more heat but also more rain, and cloudier skies obscure the dramatic scenery. Whenever you visit, your itinerary is likely to be varied and include some time at higher altitudes, so pack for every eventuality.
