Summer holiday trips — FAQs
Where to go in May in India to escape the heat?
Manali (10–25 °C), Tirthan valley, Beas Kund and Bhrigu Lake treks, and Leh (5–20 °C) are all open in May. Spiti via Manali and Hampta Pass open in June.
Is June a good time for Ladakh?
Yes — June is dry, sunny and the Manali–Leh road opens, so both fly-in and drive-in itineraries work.
