When to Visit
For the chance of the best weather plan a trip during the late spring and summer months of June to August. However, you will still likely experience rain with an average of 10 days with rain pretty much all year round. So be sure to pack a variety of all-weather gear. Take a trip during late November and December for Christmas Markets and a festive touch to brighten the winter blues. While spring sees fewer crowds and landscapers coming to life in bloom.
