The short answer
When to go to Vagamon
November to February is the most reliable window for clear skies, cool days and good ridge views, with March and October often workable. June to August brings heavy monsoon rain and mist, which hides views and makes the hill paths slippery, although the grass is at its greenest. For older travellers, the cool dry months suit the climb at Kurisumala and Thangal Para, but even then mornings are best. Monthly rainfall and temperature figures are not published here because no reliable local climate table was found.
