Dudhsagar Waterfalls

 



                        Dudhsagar Falls- one of the tallest waterfalls in India, is a mesmerizing sight to behold in South Goa. The Dudhsagar Falls are divided into four tiers, and the water gushing down resembles a rush of milk flowing down the hill. You can reach the falls by hiring a jeep or private transport from Panaji. Or else, you can choose to visit here by trekking.

                        One of the most exciting trek trails starts from the village of Kuveshi and offers moderate difficulty with breathtaking vistas. Another trekking route begins at the Kulhem/Collem railway station and takes about 6 hours to complete. However, the most preferred trail starts at the Castle Rock station in Karnataka, spanning for about 14 km, and follows the railway tracks and tunnel passages as well.

                        The best time to visit here is during monsoon as the Dudhsagar Falls stay in full flow, and the surrounding forests are at their best color. However, trekking to the falls during the monsoon can be a bit difficult for you. Also, if the water levels get too high, for safety reasons, it may stay closed.
