The short answer
When to go to Mirzapur
November to February is the most comfortable window, with dry weather, mild days and cool mornings, and it suits the town, ghats and craft workshops best. July to September is when the waterfalls are at their fullest, but the rain is heavy, rocks are slippery and the roads slow. April to June is very hot, so avoid it if you are travelling with older relatives. If waterfalls are your priority, go in September or early October, when the flow is still good and the downpours have eased.
