All Months
December through April brings dry season perfection. Temperatures hover around 75°F during the day, 55°F at night. This is peak season, so book ahead and expect higher prices.
May through November sees afternoon rains, but mornings stay clear for hiking. The landscape turns impossibly green. Hotels drop prices 30-40%, and you'll have trails mostly to yourself. Just pack a rain jacket.
Avoid September and October — the wettest months when some mountain roads become impassable. But November through March offers the sweet spot of good weather and reasonable crowds.
