Badami Weather And Best Time To Visit Badami
Planning A Trip To Badami? Here's a snapshot of Badami weather and the best time to visit Badami
Badami is a quaint little town in Karnataka. Badami’s cliffside temples and rock cut caves, save the beautiful Agasthya Thirtha, are vast, open rocky landscapes with scrubby vegetation, where rainwater collects as puddles in the rocky crevices in the monsoon and the summer sun beats down on the rocks. Seasons do matter if you are planning a trip to Badami, as the weather is constantly changing. The best season to visit Badami is winter, from October to March, when the weather is really good for travel and exploring the ancient archaeological treasures.

The flower fields of Badami are literally draped with the large yellow flowers! If you do choose to visit Badami in summer, explore the town early in the morning.
Monsoon(July-September)

In monsoon, the temperature moves from 21°C to 31°C. The landscape turns green and verdant during the rains and the farmers get busy in their fields sowing green gram, jowar and groundnuts. The showers do help in bringing down the temperature, but are not of much help if you are exploring the open spaces. Do some exploring when the sky's a little clear and sunny, for Badami during the monsoons is such a beautiful place otherwise.
Winter(October-March)
