Author's opinion
As I live in Dehradun, it is really easy for me go and visit Tiger Fall. I have visited the place thrice and still in the mood to visit it again. Chakrata is full of natural beauty and there are lots of other tourist destinations where one can visit except Tiger fall like Kalsi. So, it is not only a single tourist destination but also offers you many other spots to visit. Well the destination is amazing but the route's view will add many more stars to your trip
