The short answer
When to go to Hazaribagh
The best window is November to February, when days are dry and mild and nights are cool. March and October are workable. April and May bring heat, and June to September is the monsoon, with very heavy rain that makes forest tracks and rural roads difficult. For older travellers, winter mornings are comfortable but cold, so layers matter, and midday outings are best kept short in any season.
