September marks the transition from monsoon season to autumn in Bhutan. Visitors can expect variable conditions ranging from lingering rainfall and humidity to increasingly sunny days with cooler temperatures, particularly in the evenings. This period offers a unique perspective on the Bhutanese landscape, with lush green valleys and clearer mountain views as the rains begin to subside.
Experiencing Bhutan’s climate during this transitional month provides advantages for travelers. The reduced rainfall can make trekking conditions more favorable, and the post-monsoon landscape bursts with vibrant flora. Furthermore, the fewer crowds typical of this period allow for a more intimate exploration of Bhutan’s cultural sites and natural beauty. This time of year also coincides with several local festivals, offering a glimpse into Bhutanese traditions.
