Chakrata sits at roughly 2,118m. Whether snow is on the ground depends on where the freezing level sits that week, not just the month - it can be a winter wonderland one week and bare the next. This page runs a live Snow Line instrument comparing today's freezing level against Chakrata's altitude, plus any fresh snowfall in the 7-day forecast.
