The best time to visit Mkushi is during the dry season, which runs from May to October.
During these months, the weather is generally sunny and pleasant, with lower humidity and cooler temperatures, making it ideal for outdoor activities and exploring the area. You'll find it much more comfortable for walks and excursions without the heavy rains that characterise other times of the year.
For those interested in wildlife viewing, the dry season is particularly advantageous. As water sources diminish, animals tend to congregate around rivers and waterholes, making them easier to spot. This period is great for nature enthusiasts and those hoping to see the local fauna.
Conversely, the rainy season, from November to April, sees heavy downpours and high humidity.
