Dudhsagar and Tambdisurla Waterfall Trek with Stay

Experience the two beautiful waterfall treks in Goa with a homestay in a serene location, During this event on the first day we will be hiking through the Mahavir wildlife sanctuary to the most famous waterfall in India, Dudhsagar waterfall is a four-tiered waterfall with the railway bridge passing through a mid-section.  The sight of a train passing over the bridge is an exciting sight to cherish from the base of the waterfall. The railway route through the forest on brazanga ghat which starts from Castlerock, Karnataka to Kulem, Goa is one of the spectacular journeys with tunnels at many sections and then the milky waterfall lying in between.

After the DudhSagar trek, we will be heading to a basic homestay in the evening and retire for the day with few team bonding activities.  The next day we will be trekking through the forest to the Tambdisurla waterfall, a secluded location that starts from the ancient Basalt rock made tambdisurla temple.

Throughout the event, we will be savoring the local homemade cuisines.  Once registered, make sure you pack your items as mentioned in the checklist for the best experience of this event.
