Dudhsagar Falls, the «Sea of Milk», is a huge four-tiered waterfall pouring down a cliff in the forests of the Western Ghats. White water falls through green forest, and a railway bridge crosses in front of its middle, so trains seem to pass through the falls. It lies on the Mandovi River in Goa and drops 310 m with an average width of about 30 m, among the tallest waterfalls in India. Rich forest surrounds it inside the Bhagwan Mahaveer Sanctuary and Mollem National Park. It is 60 km from Panaji by road. Getting off trains at Dudhsagar station is now banned. Most visitors arrive by jeep from Kulem village through the forest, then walk a short way to a pool below the falls. The water is at its strongest after the monsoon. It is about 56 km in a straight line east of Panaji. Jeep trips usually stop in the heavy-rain months of June to September, so check before you go.
