The season begins in October and lasts till February. This time of the year is also the peak tourist season especially for those looking for a romantic getaway. The skies remain clear, and the mist clears as the sun rises. Thus the view-points like Parsi Point, Kate Point etc. get crowded with people to see and capture the picturesque beauty of the mountain ranges. The season is also perfect for Paragliding. There are several paragliding clubs where the adventure sport is taught, and during the season, the number of enrolments also increase considerably.

Panchgani in Monsoon (July - September)

Hill stations and monsoons are an irresistible combination for nature lovers. After a decently hot summer, July rings in the rainy season which results in a drastic drop of temperature. The monsoon season replenishes the flora in the region creating a mesmerising environment and transforming the dry terrain into a lush landscape. The freshness in the air and the scenic beauty becomes appealing to tourists. The hill station receives heavy downpours, and the climate remains wet, cold and foggy restricting sightseeing, especially the mountain views. One may, however, explore the city if they are fully prepped for the frequent showers that awaits them. Several people also visit during the 10-day long Ganesh Festival which is celebrated in August. This time of the year could prove to be a pleasant surprise for those who have never witnessed Panchgani in the monsoons.

Panchgani in Summer (March - June)

March sets the summer season on in Panchgani. The season lasts till June when the town experiences temperatures between a maximum of 38°C and a minimum of 20°C. Since the peak season can touch 38°C, it is a good idea to plan a trip around March which is when the winter season is transitioning into summer. The climate thus is moderate and is quite a good time to visit Panchgani. The peak months of the season keep the town hot and dry. The heat would make exploring the terrain an uncomfortable and exhausting activity. However, the mornings and late afternoons are pleasant and call for a quick weekend getaway for people living nearby. Visiting the Mapro Gardens, especially in April for the Strawberry Festival is highly recommended. One may also visit Sydney Point, Table Land, Rajpuri Caves, Parsi Point etc. to get an enchanting view of the valleys and Krishna River flowing nearby. The clear days and bright sunlight during the season are sure to liven up every person visiting Panchgani.
