Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Characato?
The best time to go to Characato is during the dry season, which runs from April to November.

During these months, you'll experience clear skies and pleasant temperatures, typically ranging from 12°C to 24°C. This makes it ideal for exploring the district's agricultural landscapes and the historic Plaza de Characato without the interruption of rain. It's also the superb period for outdoor activities like visiting the nearby Molino de Sabandía or simply enjoying the views of the surrounding volcanoes.

For those looking for a more relaxed trip, avoiding the peak holiday periods of July and August can offer a quieter experience while still enjoying the excellent weather.
