Best time to visit Lakes in Jaisalmer

Jaisalmer is a hot arid region of Rajasthan. Being the center of the Thar Desert, Jaisalmer receives scorching heat in the months of summer, that is from the beginning of April to the end of May. If you are an outsider, you would want to avoid spending these hot months in Jaisalmer. The winters are also chilling cold in the desert, as the sand gets cool and gives it chilling weather, especially during the dawn, dusk, and nights. Therefore, the best time to visit Jaisalmer is somewhere between these two seasons — from July to October, when the weather is neither too hot nor too cold.

It should also be considered that since these are the most popular months in Jaisalmer tourism, you will find most of the sightseeing locations crowded with tourists. However, if you visit some of these lakes, you will find that they aren’t much crowded. The beauty of these lakes is totally worth spending all the time and money on hiring a taxi in Jodhpur to travel to these locations.
