💡 Travel Tips

📅 October to March is ideal, when temperatures range from 15-25°C, making it perfect for exploring ghats and practicing yoga without the oppressive heat. Avoid May-June when temperatures soar above 40°C, and the monsoon season (July-September) brings heavy rainfall that disrupts river activities.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require any visa as Munger is located within India. Simply carry a valid passport or Aadhar card for domestic travel.
