Best time to travel to North Korea

Discover the ideal time to visit North Korea

Visiting North Korea is a unique experience, and timing your trip can greatly enhance your visit. The best time to explore this enigmatic country is during the spring months of April and May or the autumn months of September and October.

During spring, the weather is mild and pleasant, with temperatures ranging from 10° to 20°. This is an ideal time to visit Pyongyang, the capital city, where you can witness the blooming of cherry blossoms and enjoy the scenic beauty of Moran Hill.

In autumn, the temperatures are cooler, ranging from 10° to 15°, and the landscape is painted with vibrant fall colors. This season is perfect for exploring the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), the border area between North and South Korea, as well as the historic city of Kaesong.

The pleasant weather also makes it an excellent time to hike Mount Paektu, the highest peak in North Korea, known for its stunning crater lake.

Summer months, particularly June to August, can be hot and humid, with temperatures often exceeding 30°. Winters, from December to February, are harsh, with temperatures dropping well below 0°, making it less favorable for travel.

Therefore, for the most comfortable and visually appealing experience, plan your visit in spring or autumn.
