Dudhsagar Waterfalls in Goa is one of India’s most spectacular natural wonders. Located near the border between Karnataka and Goa, the majestic waterfall cascades from a height of 1017 feet, making it one of India’s tallest waterfalls. In local language, Dudhsagar translates to ‘Sea of Milk’, an apt name for this heavenly abode.
The Dudhsagar Waterfall is situated within Bhagwan Mahaveer Wildlife Sanctuary in the Mollem National Park. The area around the falls has been declared as a protected wildlife sanctuary owing to its rich biodiversity and houses different species of animals including tigers, leopards, wild boar, barking deer and much more. Apart from these animals, there are also over 250 species of birds in the vicinity that create a symphony of sounds with their chirping every morning.
The best time to visit Dudhsagar Waterfalls is during monsoon season when it gushes down with full force creating a mesmerising view as far as the eye can see. During other seasons such as spring and winter, the water supply reduces significantly and while visitors can still enjoy a pleasant view of the falls, they may not be able to witness its full splendour during these times.
A popular way to reach Dudhsagar Falls is by taking a train ride from nearby Madgaon Junction or Kulem Station which passes through tunnels right beside the waterfall allowing visitors an uninterrupted view while on board. Visitors can also take jeep safaris through Mollem National Park or trek along nearby trails leading up to Dudhsagar Falls for an experience like no other.
Apart from admiring the beauty of nature from close quarters at Dudhsagar Falls, visitors can also indulge in adventure activities such as rappelling down rocky walls or explore caves located in close proximity to get a true feel of being amidst nature’s lap. For those preferring relaxation rather than adventure activities there are plenty of overnight camping sites available near-by offering comfortable stay amongst lush greenery and breathtaking views for all ages alike!
Overall, Dudhsagar Waterfall is definitely an offbeat destination that will leave you wanting more with its captivating beauty and multitude activities on offer for all kinds of tourists looking for some peace amidst nature's wonders!
