For those that want to see the Everest Base Camp Trek come alive for spring and another cycle of life without facing the crowds, March is the way to go. It also has slightly better mountain views than April!<\/span><\/p>\n

Weather for Everest Base Camp Trek in March<\/span><\/h2>\n

March signals the arrival of spring in the Everest Region<\/a>. Below 4,000 meters, the temperature is fantastic, and even higher up, it isn\u2019t that bad. With longer days and stronger sun, the snow on the north-facing slopes is now starting to melt. Prepare for slush.<\/span><\/p>\n

March is also the pre-monsoon season with the westerlies and monsoon winds battling it out. Hence, expect thunderstorms. The rain\/snow, however, will be very short-lived and dies out just as suddenly as it starts. Expect hailstones towards the end of the month.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, with around 20 fully sunny days, there is no compromise on mountain views. If anything, the occasional cloud adds more character to the mountain views along the Everest Base Camp Trek.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Another point is that both the pe-monsoon and post-monsoon precipitation has been getting stronger every year. It is highly recommended to prepare for rain and snow, especially if you are trekking in the later parts of the month. This also increases the amount of UV exposure.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
