How To Reach Chilmiri Neck / Chilmiri Top
Chakrata, Uttarakhand, India
Chilmiri Neck, also interchangeably referred to as Chilmiri Top, is the most acclaimed and highest readily accessible viewpoint near the main Chakrata cantonment town. Situated at an elevation of around 2,134 meters (7,000 feet) above sea level, this scenic spot has earned immense popularity for off ering one of the most magnificent and sweeping panoramic views of the entire Himalayan range in the region. Visitors are treated to a visual feast that, on a clear day, includes the legendary snow-covered peaks of Bandarpoonch, Swargarohini, and Rohini Peak, stretching out across the horizon. Its secondary but most famous moniker is the Sunset View Point due to the extraordinarily beautiful and intense colors of the sky as the sun descends behind the mountains. The hilltop is a relatively flat area, providing a natural, open space ideal for leisurely strolls, relaxation, and picnicking. The entire neck is surrounded by a dense, tranquil forest composed mainly of tall Deodar and oak trees, which significantly contributes to the pleasant, cool climate and makes it a favorite spot for birdwatching. Being just a short drive from the main market, its accessibility combined with its pristine beauty makes it a must-visit destination for every tourist. The fact that it falls within the quiet, regulated Cantonment Area has ensured its preservation from unchecked commercial activities, allowing its raw, natural charm to remain intact, offering a profound sense of peace and a deep connection with nature.

How to Reach

By Air: The nearest airport is Jolly Grant Airport (DED), Dehradun (approx. 115 km). From the airport, a taxi is the best way to reach Chakrata town (approx. 4 hours). Once in Chakrata, a local cab is required for the final short 3-5 km ascent to the Neck.

By Train: The nearest major railhead is the Dehradun Railway Station (DDN) (approx. 100 km). Take a bus or a pre-booked taxi from the station to Chakrata town (approx. 3-4 hours). From the main market, a short, dedicated local taxi ride or a shared jeep ride will take you directly to the top.

By Road: Chilmiri Neck is about 3-5 km from Chakrata market. The road is well-maintained and motorable all the way up. The primary route to Chakrata is from Dehradun via Vikas Nagar and Kalsi. Regular bus services and hired taxis ply this route. Self-driving is highly recommended for flexibility.

By Local Transport: A local taxi (e. g. , Maxi Cab) from the Chakrata taxi stand is the most convenient way to reach the top. Negotiate the return trip fare, as taxis do not wait long. The walk is manageable but steep and long for most, taking about 30-45 minutes uphill.
