The ideal time to visit the park is between December and March. That is the winter season in Gir with temperatures being around 20 degree centigrade and travel is very suitable during this time. Summers are hot and intolerable but are good for photography and wildlife viewing. Monsoons are unsuitable as animals are within shelters and no safari is possible. Thus the park is shut down for its Monsoon recess on the 16th of June until the 15th of October.
