The region also has a number of temples including ones at Hanol village near tiuni, Mahasu Devta Temple dedicated to Lord Mahasu , Radina, Thaina, Indroli, Lakhwar, and Lakhamandal , the village also has several natural caves.
Tiger Fall one of the highest direct water fall having an elevation of 312ft .It is untouched by commercialization. The fall is surrounded by dense forest and the sound of the water is just wow you can just sit there for hours. As it is a remote kind of spot so it does not have fancy restaurant and hotels so you have to settle with small hotels at chakrata. Hotel snow view is quite budget and famous out there.There is a small tea shop at Fall when we talk to the owner they said they have one room too which they give to the tourists and guys stay overnight and do lot of activity like dancing and bonfire which amazed me when he said that.
JOURNEY
We started our journey from ISBT (Kashmiri Gate), Delhi on friday night via bus towards dehradun. Our first halt was at khatuali where we had tea and some snacks. As we have to travel from dehradun to chakrata in the morning so we thought that we can take a nap of 4 hours. We reached at dehradun in morning at 6 AM from there we went to our friend house where we had a lovely break fast made by his mother. Then we took their "Activa" and leave towards "Chakrata ". Half the way is very good and going through a dense forest gives us a very great feeling during the journey we halt at several temples and had "prashad".

Roads are good at most of the time but a stretch of about 20km is in very bad condition. After reaching to chakrata we start searching for hotel and found only three option from which hotel snow view point is very good and it is in the main market of chakrata. After check in to the hotel we bought some drinks. About 2 o clock we head to Tigerfall where we stay for couple of hours took a bath in mighty tigerfall which gave us magnificent feeling.
After Tigerfall we returned to our hotel where we had our dinner then drinks and enjoy the music in loud volume. In the morning we check out about 10 am and leave for home but before hitting the dehradun we stopped at river which is in the way.
We just refreshing ourselves by soothing sound of water through the rocks which makes us to forgot all the worries and hustle bustle of city life. We had been there for more than two hours and want to spend more time but we need to get back to our home so we started our scooty but our plans just got tragic my scooty rear Tyre got punctured then we push it to about 2km there get it repaired and started our journey.
After reaching dehradun we took our buses and leave for delhi. we reached delhi by 10pm in the night. Overall it was a great trip and we had lot of fun timings are just accurate had so many unforgettable moments.
