92 kms. from Dehradun and 73 kms. from Mussoorie at 2118 metres rests Chakrata, once a contonment town in British India. One look at Chakrata and it becomes clear that this place is blessed to be the eternal home of natural beauty. Virgin  forests  of  conifers, rhododendrons and oaks are best suited for long walks. By these forests, picturesque villages of the Jaunsari tribe exist alongside, and in the shadow of the overpowering Kharamba peak (3048 meters) Chakrata has its share of Alpine beauty, too. On its northern slopes is situated Mundoli (2776 meters), where skiing is possible between November and April. Those who are not Indians would be wise to check up on the latest regulations on entry in this area from the civil authorities or the tourism department.

EXCURSIONS

Deoband (2776 meters), Kanasar (2621 meters), Molta (2159 meters), Tiger Falls are worth visiting. The temple of Mahasu Deota at Hanol is very popular amongst the pilgrims of Garhwal and Himachal Pradesh.
