The ideal time to visit Annandale in Shimla is during the spring months of March to June. During this period, the weather is pleasantly mild and the temperatures range from 15°C to 30°C, providing a perfect escape from the scorching heat of the plains. This is a great time for outdoor activities, such as picnics, golfing at the Annandale golf course, and nature walks in the meadows. The clear skies offer unobstructed views of the Shimla landscape, and the blooming flowers add vibrancy to the lush green surroundings of Annandale.
However, if you are enthusiastic about witnessing the beauty of snow, the winter months of December to February can also be considered. Although it's chilly with temperatures often dipping below freezing, the ambiance becomes enchanting with the possibility of snowfall covering the area in a white blanket. During this time, the crowd is usually less, allowing for a more peaceful experience. Be aware that while winters are beautiful, they do require adequate winter clothing and the possibility of disruption in travel plans due to heavy snowfall needs to be considered.
