India has plenty of pocket-friendly getaways for budget travellers in March. Rishikesh is a true paradise for adventure lovers and budget travellers. Gokarna has gorgeous, less crowded beaches, chilled-out cafes, and budget-friendly homestays. The snow is melting, making way for lush greenery, and trekking routes like Triund are open but not overcrowded. The weather is pleasant (around 15-25 degrees Celsius), making it ideal for outdoor activities in the Himalayas and the coast of Rajasthan. The winter crowds have thinned out, and the evenings are still cool enough for sightseeing before summer temperatures rise. The best time of the year to visit these places is in March, when the weather is sunny but not unbearably hot, and post-New Year crowds have disappeared. The most affordable getaways in India are in the mountains, the coast, or a heritage town. They are all affordable and can be enjoyed without overspending your hard-earned cash.
