Yes, March is a great month to trek in the Indian Himalayas as the views during this month start to change. The meadows turn green and so do the plants and trees. The major highlight is the gradual blooming of rhododendron and warmer day time. Trekking in March is also ideal if you want to avoid the overcrowding of Himalayas by the trekkers who start to come in from April onwards.
The snowfall at most of the places in the Indian Himalayas stops by mid-March. However, one can still find plenty of ice and snow stacked on the trekking trails. The mountains too remain covered in snow in the month of March.
Since the day temperature starts to rise in the month of March, the snow starts to melt making it loose and often difficult to make a grip with shoes. You will also get plenty of patches where snow is absent and walking is easier. Thus, trekking in March is a mixed experience where you have to be extra cautious on loose ice and you can walk carefree on snow-free patches.
