august it going to be pretty rainy. but if you like green beauty, this is the best time. check the bedni bugyal link on mt blog page. we did it on independence day weekend (15th aug). that can give you an idea of the stunning greenery.

You can even do the milam trek in the same period. that is a long one but a great trek.
