☀️ Optimal Season to Visit

The monsoon season (July-September) brings the waterfalls to their full glory with high water volume, though trekking can be challenging due to slippery paths and leeches. The post-monsoon period to early winter (October to February) offers dry trails, clear visibility, and comfortable temperatures, making it ideal for trekking.

For a balanced experience of good water flow and manageable trekking, the months immediately following the monsoon, from September to November, are recommended.
