The ideal time to visit Siliguri is during the cooler months from October to February when the climate is most pleasant. During this period, the temperature ranges between a comfortable 8°C to 25°C, making it suitable for exploring the city and the surrounding areas. The weather is perfect for sightseeing, engaging in outdoor activities, and partaking in local festivals. Winter also brings clearer skies, offering great views of the Himalayan range, which can be a real treat for travelers interested in photography or nature.
Visitors should consider avoiding the monsoon season from June to September, as heavy rains can cause disruptions in travel plans due to waterlogged roads and the risk of landslides in the region. However, if you don't mind the rain, the monsoon transforms the landscape into a lush green paradise, which can be quite beautiful for those who enjoy the serenity of rains. Conversely, the summer months from April to June can be quite warm and humid, yet it could be a preferable time for those looking to escape the harsher summer heat of the plains, as the temperatures during this period typically stay below 35°C.
