The best time to visit Tarutung is during the dry season, which typically runs from May to September.
During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and more sunshine, making it ideal for exploring the region's natural beauty and outdoor attractions. The clearer skies and comfortable temperatures are great for activities like visiting the Sipoholon Hot Springs or exploring the surrounding hills and plantations. This period is particularly good for couples or solo travelers who enjoy outdoor adventures and scenic drives without the interruption of heavy rain.
While the dry season offers the most favorable weather, Tarutung can be visited year-round. The wet season, from October to April, brings more frequent showers, but these are often brief, and the landscape is especially lush and green during this time.
