Spring / Autumn
Spring (March – May)
During Spring you will experience warm temperatures at lower altitudes and moderate temperatures higher up. The chances of clear, unobstructed mountain views are good, and it is also a good time to see Nepal’s flowers blossom.Autumn (September – November)
This is the preferred trekking season in Nepal. You will be almost guaranteed excellent mountain views, but be wary – this is the peak trekking season in Nepal, so be sure to book your flights in advance and be prepared for more crowded trekking routes. During this time, you’ll also be able to see and participate in the biggest festivals in Nepal – Dasain and Tihar.
Mount Dhaulagiri is the seventh highest mountain in the world. It forms the eastern anchor of the Dhaulagiri Himal range, a sub-range of the Himalaya in the north central Nepal. It lies northwest of Pokhara, an important regional town and tourist centre. Across the deep gorge of the Kali Gandaki to the east lies the Annapurna Himal range, home to Annapurna I, one of the other eight-thousanders.
In terms of rise above local terrain, Dhaulagiri is, in fact, almost unparalleled in the world. It rises 7000 m over the Kali Gandaki gorge to the southeast in about 30 km of horizontal distance. The Kali Gandaki is especially dramatic since Dhaulagiri and Annapurna both stand near the river, giving a unique example of two Eight-thousanders facing each other over a deep valley. The South and West faces of Dhaulagiri both feature massive drops; each rises over 4000 meters from its base, and each has been the site of epic climbs.
The first accent of Mount Dhaulagiri was first achieved on 13 May 1960 by Kurt Diemberger, a Swiss/Austrian expedition under the leadership of Max Eiselin. This group used the Northeast Ridge route. Most of the ascents to date have been via the first ascent route, which is the "Normal Route" on the mountain. However ascents have been made from almost every direction.
