Chakrata

Chakrata, DehradunChakrata is a small town near Dehradun which served as an infantry base during the British rule. It is especially known for tranquil, beautiful and pollution free surroundings. The hill station is positioned between the Rivers Tons and Yamuna at an altitude of 5,500-6,500 ft. The region was earlier known as Jaunsar Bawar from the local Jaunsari tribe, which still has a remarkable presence in the area. Chakrata is an access-restricted, special entry military cantonment with foreigners not allowed to drive inside the area. One has to show Indian identity proof before entering this secluded paradise.

Location
Chakrata is located approximately 92 kms from the city of Dehradun in Uttarakhand. The Kalsi Army Check post allows only Indians to drive through to Chakrata where one has to pay a toll fee.

Interesting Facts
  • The check post at Kalsi allows people to enter only at specific timings in the day which varies with the season. If one misses one time period then he/she has to wait for at least 2.5 hours before he/she can think of going inside. The timings start at 7am and then after every 2.5 hours; 1st October onwards timings become 7:30 am with the same time gap.
  • It is the permanent stronghold of the mysterious and cream of the crop Special Frontier Force, also recognized as ‘Establishment 22’ (called ‘Two-Two’). It is the only traditional Tibetan unit of the Indian Army which was gathered after the Indo-China War of 1962.
  • During spring season, red Buransh flowers are in full bloom. Special juice is acquired by crushing the flowers with mortar and pestle.
