Weather Conditions in June
change startThe middle of June typically marks the beginning of the monsoon. Clear mornings are still possible but get increasingly less likely towards the end of the month. Be prepared for rain and hot humid weather in the low elevation valleys. The added moister means the hills are beginning to change to their vibrant monsoon green. The weather is generally a little drier than in the low valleys at high altitude, but cloud cover can be frustrating when trekking to viewpoints. As always in the spring, early morning is your best chance for clear skies.

Annapurna Sanctuary via Ghorepani (Poon Hill) and via Short Modi Khola Start led by Lali (Laxmi) Malla
Great place, although we couldn’t see much due to clouds!

Annapurna Sanctuary via Ghorepani (Poon Hill) led by Ang Tsering Sherpa
The side trip to Poon Hill was beautiful although the view at Khopra was more dramatic and far less crowded. If we did the Khopra trek again, I probably would not go to Poon Hill as well.

Ghandruk Loop Australian Camp Out and Back and via Ghorepani (Poon Hill) led by SAMIKSHYA CHAUDHARY
The final ascent from Ghorepani to Poon Hill is not as difficult as some other parts of the trek, and is certainly worth doing for the spectacular views of the sunrise over the Annapurna range from the top.
