Dudhsagar Falls, Waterfall in Bhagwan Mahavir Wildlife Sanctuary, Goa, India

Dudhsagar Falls is a four-tiered waterfall on the Mandovi River, 310 m high and about 30 m wide on average, set in a crescent-shaped valley inside Bhagwan Mahaveer Sanctuary and Mollem National Park. A multi-arched stone bridge crosses the dark rock face in front of the falls, and a blue and white passenger train runs along it above the cascades.

The site remained difficult to reach until the late 20th century, when new roads and safari services made access easier for travelers. A railway line through the area was built in the early 20th century and still runs across the cliff face today.

The name translates to sea of milk, describing how white foam rushes over dark rock faces during the monsoon season. Hikers from nearby villages come here to swim in natural pools and rest near the base of the cascades.

Visitors reach the site by joining jeep safaris that depart from gathering points near Mollem and drive through the sanctuary. The best time to visit is during or just after the monsoon, when water volume peaks and the tiers flow at full force.

An active railway viaduct runs directly through the falling curtain of water, so trains pass through the cascades several times each day. Passengers can watch the rushing stream and surrounding gorge from carriage windows as they cross.
