Bhutan -last week in August

We%26#39;re thinking of going to Bhutan during the last week of August and first week of September. Is it a good idea or will it be rainy?



Thanks,

Bhutan -last week in August


Hi Juliana,



The monsoon is from June till mid September, so probably it will rain. But even in the rain, Bhutan is very beautiful. And as we were now in spring, almost every day it rained. So, you never know.



If this is the only time you can come to Bhutan, do it. If you can plan another time, you might have better weather.



Bhutan -last week in August


We went in March / early April and the weather was simply wonderful. It was sunshine, the roads were dry and at altitudes, it got a a little cool. In areas such as Punakka, it was hot 28-29 degrees Celsius.





During March, April, and do check the exact dates as they change every year, you can view the annual Tsechu in Paro.





If you are going during the monsoon season, traveling on the roads may be tough as most are unpaved. Even in excellent weather, we did encounter landslides which delayed the road travel substantially.
