Dudhsagar Falls & Dandeli
Experience the breathtaking trails with Hikers Horizon.
Trail Overview & Experience
What do travelers with great taste do beyond the beaches? They embark on the legendary Dudhsagar Falls Trek & Dandeli Adventure. Dudhsagar Falls is a majestic four-tiered waterfall on the Mandovi River along the Goa-Karnataka border, surrounded by deep deciduous jungle and the iconic railway bridge.
On Day 1, we trek to the magnificent roaring Dudhsagar Waterfalls and take a refreshing dip with safety life jackets. On Day 2, we head into the wild heart of Dandeli for high-energy water activities (white water rafting, kayaking, natural jacuzzi) followed by the serene views of the Supa Dam Backwaters.
