Best Time to Travel

Autumn (Sept. to Nov.) and spring (March to May) are the best time for Hiking . The weather is delightful and pleasant during autumn. The mountain views are astonishing.

The hills are wrapped with beautiful flowering rhododendron during spring. Majority of the trekkers find spring best time to hike to Australian Camp since they love to see flowering rhododendron.

Winter( Dec-Feb) will be very harsh due to cold and cloudy weather which hide the mountain peaks.

Summer will be too hot for some trekkers. Heavy rainfall occurs and disturbs the transportation and even walk in the mountain.

Physical Condition and Experience

Those who can walk 2 hours in the mountain can do this trek.  Asutralian Camp Hiking  is an easy trek in Annapurna Region Trekking in Nepal . Regular exercise, jogging and short hiking enhance your stamina and confidence. No prior trekking experience and technical skills are required for Asutralian Camp Hiking. These prior skills will be an asset for it.
