The short answer
When to go to Munger
November to February is the best window, with mild, dry days that suit the fort, the ghat and the shrines. October and March are workable if you start early. April to June is hot, with highs close to 38 degrees, and July to September is wet and humid, so roads and ghat steps get slippery. Older travellers should keep midday for rest and plan outdoor sights for the morning and late afternoon.
