Excited to reach chakrata I started early in the morning for dehradun from roorkee.
I reached dehradun at 8 AM in the morning. There are no direct busses for chakrata from dehradun. After some queries I got to know that I need to board a bus to Vikas Nagar and from Vikas Nagar there are based direct to chakrata. It took 4 hours to reach chakrata.
But the journey was beautiful and enjoyable too. I was on a solo trip and interacted with lot of localities.
I reached chakrata at 2 pm and had a good lunch there and got a single room rana guest house. Then I went for the most famous sunset spot at chirmiri top.
I took a lift from back to chakrata as I was late while coming back. I had a good dinner and walked around in chakrata till midnight to celebrate new year with Himalayan view.
Next morning I woke up at 8 and went for a good breakfast. My target for the day was to visit tiger fall and way back to Roorkee. But destiny is a good thing.
There are two ways to reach tiger fall. One a long distance of 15km, taxis go there on rent. Second way is from a jungle which is short but adventures. I obviously choose the second one and it was fun.
I was lost in a jungle for a while but a cool kid helped me to get back on the right direction. There is a unsaid rule in mountains "help everyone!". Finally I reached tiger fall after walking for 2 hours descending a mountain.
I had a Maggi near a tiger fall. It was a serene and joyous feeling. According to my plan I have to go back to chakrata from here and try to catch the last bus from there. But destiny plays it role. Here I am met some cool people who offered me ride to deoban. We talked a lot and it was fun interacting with them. From there we went to deoban a 1:30 hour ride in ecosport. There was just patches of snow but it was mesmerizing. The chilled air and sparkling snow filled everyone's face with a smile.
Keeping the memories in mind and capturing the photos in phone we started our journey back to chakrata. It was amazing solo trip and new friends made it more profound.
Till Next time.
