March signals the end of harsh winter and the arrival of spring in the Indian Himalayas. During trekking in March, the trails begin to shed their icy layers, revealing blooming rhododendrons and crystal-clear views of snow-clad mountains. For trekkers, this is the month where comfort and charm intersect, you get the snowline drama without the extremity of trekking in sub-zero temperatures.
Weather across Himalayan trekking zones becomes considerably less harsh. Daytime temperatures generally range from 5°C to 15°C, while nights can still be chilly, dipping to around 0°C at higher altitudes. The skies are mostly clear, the air is crisp, and snow still clings to upper ridgelines, creating a beautiful contrast with the reawakening of forests and meadows below.
