The rains are generally lighter high in the Himalayas than in Kathmandu, though the mountain peaks are often lost in cloud. After the monsoon, there is little dust in the air so this is the best season to visit the hilly and mountainous regions. It is possible to trek in places like the Everest region during the winter, but it is extremely cold and snow fall may prevent going above 4,000 - 4,500 meters. The Jomosom trek is a reasonable alternative, staying below 3,000 meters. the best time to undertake mountain expeditions is between April and June.
