Despite the heavy rainfall, Sangla attracts a considerable number of visitors during the monsoon season from July to October. With temperatures ranging between 25 degrees Celsius and 30 degrees Celsius, the monsoon offers a welcome relief from the summer heat. The Ganges swells, drawing more people to the ghats to witness the enchanting sights. However, be cautious of slippery paths due to algae accumulation.

Summer in Sangla, lasting from March to June, reaches its peak heat in April and May. With temperatures soaring up to 45 degrees Celsius, outdoor activities become challenging due to the intense heat and dry winds.
