Kalimpong, Lava & Lolegaon in August

VerdictThink twiceWeatherKalimpong 19–25 °C, heavy rain, mist

Much like July: heavy rain, slides and short clear spells. Neora Valley stays closed and rafting does not run. Hotels offer their lowest rates. Kalimpong town works for a quiet, rainy stay with books and good food, but long road journeys are a gamble. Monitor NH10 and the Gorubathan road closely.

Local tip: Pack leech socks and a proper raincoat if you plan even short walks.
