The best time to go to Kalkarindji is during the dry season, which runs from May to October.
During these months, the weather is more moderate, with clear skies and lower humidity, making outdoor activities and travel around the region much more pleasant. Daytime temperatures typically range from the mid-20s to low 30s Celsius, and nights are cooler. This period avoids the intense heat and heavy rainfall of the wet season, which can make roads impassable and outdoor exploration uncomfortable.
For those interested in experiencing local culture and events, the dry season often coincides with community gatherings and cultural festivals, providing a unique opportunity to connect with the local Warumungu people.
