The ideal time to visit Lake Garden Saputara is during the cooler months of the year, which span from late September to February. During this window, the weather in Saputara is pleasant, with temperatures ranging between 8 to 28 degrees Celsius, providing a comfortable environment for outdoor activities and garden exploration without the harshness of summer heat or monsoonal rains. Winter months especially offer clear skies and a gentle breeze, perfect for picnics, boat rides on the lake, and leisurely strolls in the well-manicured gardens. Festivities such as paragliding festivals and cultural events also take place around this period, adding to the charm of the visit.
Monsoon season, which typically lasts from June to September, although not the peak season, could also be attractive for those who appreciate green landscapes and don't mind the rain. Saputara, being a hill station, comes alive with lush vegetation, waterfalls, and misty environs during monsoon, giving Lake Garden a serene and verdant backdrop. However, heavy rainfall can occasionally disrupt travel plans and outdoor activities, hence visitors choosing to come during this period should be prepared for a certain level of unpredictability. Post-monsoon (October and November) can also be a good time to witness the aftermath of the monsoon's effect on the landscape’s beauty, with a lesser crowd and more serene environment.
