April is a pleasant spring month with mild temperatures and blooming flowers, but it's also one of the rainiest months. The landscape is vibrant and green, and the sea of clouds is common. It's a good time to visit if you don't mind rain.
Bring a mix of short and long sleeve shirts, a light sweater, and a waterproof jacket. Don't forget an umbrella, rain poncho, and waterproof hiking shoes. A hat and sunscreen for sunny intervals.
Qingming Festival (early April) sees a surge in domestic tourists; book ahead. Rain is frequent, so pack accordingly and check trail conditions. Early mornings offer the best chance to see the sea of clouds.
