Trip Map
Best season to visit
Like many parts of Nepal, the best time to do Jumla to Dolpo trek is spring (March-May) and autumn (September- November). Being a rain shadow region, Dolpo receives very less or no rain at all which makes monsoon season also one of the best times to visit. Winter is very cold and filled with snow. However, if you have proper equipment and experience in trekking in winter you can still trek.
Other requirements-
Travel Insurance – high altitudes places are not the kind of places you want to travel to without an insurance policy. Travel insurance has become part of trekking requirements. If you ever have some medical emergencies your travel insurance will have to bear it and that is why you need to mention the details about the places you are going to and the altitudes you will be reaching.
Valid visas/passports – all foreigners except Indians are required to have valid visas and passports to enter Nepal. The visa application will need the passport having a minimum of 6 months of validation along with your passport size photo. You will receive your visa upon your arrival at Tribhuvan international airport.
