During this brief, two-month period, visitors are advised to avoid travelling to Kanatal. Being a remote location at an elevated height it tends to receive an incessant amount of rainfall that results in flooding, cloud burst, poor visibility and strong winds. The entire village becomes inaccessible and could be life threatening if visitors are not careful. Although the surrounding vegetation becomes lush this time of the year, the risk outweights the reward of travelling to Kanatal in the monsoon.
