Pissu Top, one of the most tough hill spots, is located in
Anantnag District of
Jammu and Kashmir. Chandanwari is 3 km from here, enroute the

Legend has it that once there occurred a conflict between Devatas and
Rakshasas. The Devatas overcame the demons using the power of Lord Shiva. The dead bodies of these demons formed a heap which resulted in the formation of this high mountain.
