This is an ideal time for trekking amidst the stunning landscapes of Paro, Punakha, and Thimphu. Witness traditional festivals like Paro Tsechu and soak in the spiritual ambiance of Bhutan.
**Summer (June to August):** The summer months bring monsoon rains to Bhutan. While this can limit outdoor activities, it's a great time to explore Bhutan's vibrant culture. Attend local festivals like Haa Summer Festival and enjoy the lush greenery in valleys like Bumthang.
**Autumn (September to November):** Autumn is one of the best times to visit Bhutan. The weather is pleasant, and clear skies provide stunning views of the Himalayas. The famous trek to Tiger's Nest Monastery is especially rewarding during this season. Don't miss the colorful Thimphu Tshechu festival, a highlight of Bhutanese culture.
**Winter (December to February):** Winter in Bhutan brings chilly temperatures, especially in higher altitudes. However, it's a peaceful time to explore monasteries and enjoy the tranquility of Bhutan's landscapes. Witness the Punakha Drubchen festival and experience Bhutan's unique winter traditions.
