| Month | Score | Note |
|---|---|---|
| January | 4/5 | January at Ambaji: 12-24°C, crisp hilltop air and dry darshan days. Winter works well for the Shakti Peeth climb, though Bhadarvi Poonam in Sept is the true peak. |

| May | 1/5 | Very hot |
| June | 2/5 | Pre-monsoon |
| July | 3/5 | July at Ambaji: 24–32°C, humid with southwest rain. Shakti Peeth darshan on — workable, the hilltop climb wet and slippery in peak monsoon. |

| September | 4/5 | Navratri — massive celebrations |
| October | 5/5 | October at Ambaji: 20-33°C, post-monsoon Aravalli foothills — the Shakti Peeth hilltop temple draws Navaratri pilgrims and the approach road stays clear of rain. |
