Sweet spot: March, April, May. Computed from NASA POWER climate normals across the route's overnight towns, balancing temperature, rainfall and daylight.
💡 Good to know
- Drier months usually make road travel and viewpoints easier to plan, but mist can obscure the escarpment and wildlife sightings are never guaranteed.
- Warmer, wetter months remain possible only after current road, flood, gate and park notices are checked; allow for afternoon storms and no guaranteed view or sighting.
