What to expect in February

JWN Journeys in February 2025

The transition towards warmer weather with pleasant days, cool nights, and the promise of springtime blooms makes it a great time for travel and outdoor exploration.

Boating on Dal Lake in Kashmir allows you to experience the serene beauty of snow-capped mountains reflected in the calm water, adorned with vibrant houseboats and the promise of spring peeking through.

Flowers begin to bloom across most of the country starting February, with stunning displays of roses, lilies, tulips, and many other varieties.

What's February like in India?

February is dry and sunny throughout India, making it an excellent time of year for an Indian holiday. In a similar vein to January, the temperature in the country's far northern states of Himachal Pradesh and Sikkim will be cold, and there is likely to be snow on the ground.

February is a wonderful time to visit India's historical monuments, wander through vibrant markets, or enjoy outdoor activities like trekking or picnicking in the hills. Festivals like the vibrant Vasant Panchami, dedicated to the goddess of knowledge, also add a touch of color and celebration to the month.

What temperatures should I expect?

Average highs are around 78F (24°C) and lows are 51F (14°C)

February in Delhi is ideal to explore the city's historical sites, lush gardens, and culinary delights. Temperatures range between approximately 50F (10°C) to 75F (23°C), with nearly 11 hours of sunlight daily.
