Trekking The Braganza Ghats and Trainspotting at DUDHSAGAR Waterfalls | INDIAN RAILWAYS

A four km long trek from Sonalium to Dudhsagar railway station along the tracks takes you along one of the most beautiful locations in India.
Dudhsagar Falls (literally Sea of Milk ) is a four-tiered waterfall located on the Mandovi River in the border of the Indian state of Goa and Karnataka. It is 60 km from Panaji by road and is located on the Madgaon-Belgavi rail route about 46 km east of Madgaon and 80 km south of Belgavi. Dudhsagar Falls is amongst India's tallest waterfalls with a height of 310 m (1017 feet) and an average width of 30 metres (100 feet).
The falls is located in the Bhagwan Mahaveer Sanctuary and Mollem National Park among the Western Ghats. The waterfall forms the border between Karnataka and Goa states. The area is surrounded by a deciduous forests with a rich biodiversity. The falls are not particularly spectacular during the dry season but during the monsoon season however, the falls are fed by rains and form a huge force of water.
There has been a lot of hype of Dudhsagar trek being closed for the general public. The Dudhsagar railway trek has been officially closed for the general public but the trek to the Dudhsagar falls bottom is still open for all.
There are two routes to reach there. One is starting the trek from Kulem and follow the jeep trail until the bottom of the waterfall. The second option is via the railway track. You can trek up to the Sonaulim station and Join back to the Mud route. This route would save 2 km on the Mud road.

TRIVIA : The famous Kombangaon Railway station scene from "Chennai Express" starring Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone was shot at Dudhsagar waterfalls.

On my ' bucket-list' from Australia.
Indian train journeys are the best in the world if one can put up with very minor perturbations.
The hospitility , food, and safety is paramount.
