Jaldapara experiences heavy monsoon showers between June and September and the park remains closed to tourists. All national parks remain closed during monsoon because safaris are difficult and there are negligible chances of spotting animals. Monsoons are generally breeding time for the animals and they prefer to remain in their shelters and do not venture out much. Safaris are thus not undertaken during these months. Incessant rains and thunderstorms make traveling and sighting challenging and there is nothing much to do unless tourists want to experience rains in the forest.

Winter (October to March)

Mid-September to October is the period right after the monsoons when the leaves are fresh and green. The grasslands grow in height during monsoon rains making the forests denser than ever. Animals hide behind these overgrown grasses and spotting becomes difficult unless they choose to come out in the open. This period also witnesses occasional showers which make safaris difficult. The better time to visit Jaldapara is between November and March. The trees shed leaves, the grasses tend to get thinner and the weather also improves vastly. It is cool and pleasant; the skies are clear and cloudless and this is the perfect time for paying a visit to the jungles and chances of spotting animals are also high.
