Kathmandu from Prague
6,369 km, about 8h 41m in the air. Every month scored for the weather at Kathmandu and for the holidays that crowd it out at both ends.
Affiliate links: we may earn a commission if you book through one, at no extra cost to you. It changes nothing above — the scores are computed from climate and fare data before any link is built.
Free, on Telegram. One tap — PRG is already chosen. We write
when a fare is genuinely below what that route normally costs, and
/stop ends it.
Public holidays at Prague move this destination's year too little to make it a different answer, so the Kathmandu page is the one of record. This one is kept for the distance and the flight it implies.
No fare history on PRG–KTM yet, so this ranking is climate and crowds only. The price column fills in as the scanner collects.

Crowds is a score out of 100 where higher is quieter. It counts public-holiday clusters in CZ as well as at Kathmandu, which is why this table differs from the same one read from another country. A busy month is a crowded one, not a bad one — usually it is crowded because the weather is good. Crowds alone never make a month “avoid”: that is reserved for weather worth skipping.
The year in Kathmandu
Kathmandu experiences a distinctive dry season in winter (December to February) and a severe monsoon from June to September. Visitors should plan accordingly, as heavy rainfall can disrupt travel plans.
| Busiest |
early May to mid Jun — This period marks the spring season where temperatures are warm and rain is beginning, attracting many tourists.
early Oct to mid Nov — The autumn season brings clear skies and moderate temperatures, making it ideal for trekking and outdoor activities.
|
|---|---|
| Quieter, still good |
mid Feb to late Apr — These months provide mild weather and lesser crowds compared to peak season.
mid Nov to late Dec — Post-peak season offers good weather with few tourists and lower prices.
|
| Wet or stormy |
mid Jun to late Sep — monsoon, severe
|
| Watch out for | haze; wildfire season in dry months |
This section was written by a language model from the climate figures above, and nobody has checked it. The month-by-month table is measured — ten years of ERA5 readings and published holiday calendars — and where the two disagree, the table is the one to believe. The busiest and quieter periods here also count toward the crowd score, which is 20% of the ranking.
