Darjeeling & Ghoom in September
The monsoon fades through the month and the first clear mornings return towards the end. Prices are still low until Dashain and the Bengali Puja holidays, which in some years begin in late September and bring the autumn rush. A good month for value if you can travel early, with green hills and fewer people.
Local tip: If the Puja holidays fall in late September, book rooms well before the month starts.
