The short answer
When to go to Dungarpur
October to March is the best window, with clear, dry days and cool evenings; November to February is the most comfortable for the stair-heavy Juna Mahal and long road trips. Summer brings daily highs near 43 degrees Celsius and is best avoided. The monsoon turns the hills green and the rivers full, but showers can disrupt country drives. Older travellers should plan town sights in the morning and rest at midday.
