The best time to visit Dakshinkali is during the dry season, from October to March, for comfortable weather and clear skies.During these months, the temperatures are mild, typically ranging from 15°C to 25°C, making it ideal for exploring the temple complex and the surrounding natural areas. The air is generally crisp and clear after the monsoon, offering excellent visibility for scenic views of the hills. This period also coincides with several important local festivals, providing a deeper insight into the local culture.For those looking to combine their visit with trekking or outdoor activities in the Bagmati region, October and November are particularly good. The trails are dry, and the lush greenery from the monsoon is still present, creating picturesque landscapes. This timing is especially suitable for couples or solo travellers who appreciate comfortable conditions for exploration and photography.While the monsoon season (June to September) brings lush landscapes, it also means heavy rainfall, which can make travel and outdoor activities less convenient. Similarly, April and May can be quite hot and dusty.
