What Is The Best Time To Go On A Bali Pass Trek?
Most people prefer to go on the Bali Pass Trek from May to June. During this time, you can enjoy the transition from snow-covered mountains to green pastures. And this view is undoubtedly worth the experience at least once. You also get to see rhododendrons blooming and making the valleys more vibrant. So if you like photography, you can capture many beautiful dynamic landscapes during this time.
Another good time to go on this trek is from September to October, as the trails freshen up after the monsoon rains, and the tree leaves are transacting towards the autumn phase. Seeing the leaves turning orange can be a soothing experience. You can even capture some of the best autumn landscapes during this time.
To experience snow, plan your trip after November and the best time is March as the weather is not extremely cold. Also, avoid the rainy monsoon season as the trails get slippery, and it gets hard for you to walk.
