History
The historical records specifically detailing Moila Top are scarce. However, the Chakrata region itself has a rich history, having served as a cantonment town during the British Raj. The British established Chakrata in 1866 and used it as a summer retreat and a strategic military base. The surrounding areas, including Moila Top, were likely used for scouting and resource gathering. Local folklore and oral traditions might hold more specific stories about the significance of Moila Top to the indigenous communities of the Jaunsar-Bawar region. Today, Moila Top is primarily valued for its natural beauty and serves as a popular trekking destination for those visiting Chakrata.
