Best time to Visit Sela Pass

Even though Sela Pass is open throughout the year, most of the websites say "the best months to visit are October, November, March, April and May because there are less chances of the route being snowed-in due to the snowfall."


However, let me tell ya all that the most appropriate time to visit Se La Pass is November or more mid November when you get some snow & bearable cold.



After November it is too freezing to enjoy the beauty. September - October shall be pleasant but no guarantee for snow. In February, Sela Pass remains totally frozen and one can walk on the ice there.

Temperature stats for the best time to visit Sela Pass in the peak season months-
October- 12 degrees/-4 degrees
November- 11 degrees /-9 degrees
December- 10 degrees /-4 degrees
January- 12 degrees /-2 degrees
February- 12 degrees /-4 degrees with rain
March- 11 degrees /-6 degrees


"We visited Sela pass in April 2016 and on the entire road way there was snow and with the mountain stretches looking white and gray (i.e thin snow coverage over the barren mountains). But closer the main Sela Pass, there were deep white snow, Hence you will not be disappointed if you visit in April. The additional bonus, since it is the onset of Summer, the climate is also not that bitter, while you see snow everywhere, yet the climate is pleasant. However be ware, any moment you witness sudden weather change!!!"
