Dudhsagar Falls & South Goa Trip
Trek at a glance
Trek overview
Tucked away on the Goa–Karnataka border, yet very much Goa at heart, Dudhsagar Falls is the kind of place that makes you stop in your tracks. As the water crashes down from over 1,000 metres, it spreads into a foamy white sheet, earning its name – Dudhsagar, the “Sea of Milk.” Standing before it, with the roar in your ears and the mist on your skin, you understand why it’s counted among the five highest waterfalls in India.
But this trip isn’t just about ticking off a famous waterfall. We’re here for the thrill of the journey — trekking through lush forest trails, the sound of streams keeping us company, and that first glimpse of the falls peeking through the greenery. After the trek, we slow things down and explore the quieter, more soulful side of Goa. Think a hidden beach where golden sands meet turquoise waters, forts with sweeping views, and sunsets that look like they’ve been painted just for you.
Still wondering if this trip is for you? Let’s make it easy
1. Why go with Plan The Unplanned?
AC travel, interstate taxes, stays, meals, and a flexible Day 2 — all included. Plan it yourself and you’ll spend more (and miss the fun).
2. What’s different about this Dudhsagar trip?
You’re not just seeing the falls — you’ll trek through lush forests, chill at a secret South Goa beach, and stay in a cosy homestay away from the crowds.
3. Why book early?
Spots for Dudhsagar are limited and sell out fast. The Forest Department has strict entry caps, so early booking = guaranteed entry.
4. Any perks for booking now?
Yep! Early Bird prices for the first 10 bookings, your seat locked in, and zero last-minute FOMO.

We begin our journey on Friday evening. We’ll start early compared to the usual trek as we have over 560 KMs to cover. Reaching on time is very essential as the trek is a long one. So, once we get out of the iconic Bangalore traffic and hit the Mumbai- Bangalore highway, our energetic trek leads will take over. Armed with fun activities & ice-breaking sessions, you’ll soon feel at home after knowing about everyone else on the bus. The trek leads will brief the itinerary of the trip ahead and leave you to catch some much-needed sleep.

No alcohol or smoking
For everyone’s safety and enjoyment, please don’t consume alcohol, intoxicants, or smoke at any point during the journey or trek.
Dinner before boarding
Kindly complete your dinner before you board the bus.
Travel arrangements
We’ll arrange transportation based on our group size. If there are 12 or fewer of us, we’ll use a tempo traveler. For groups of 13 or more, it’ll be a mini-bus. Both options are non-AC and have push-back seats for your comfort. We appreciate your understanding regarding our travel logistics.
"Without Travel" option
If you prefer to arrange your own transportation to the destination (the homestay), be sure to book the “Without Travel” option when you sign up. Please note: If you select this, you’ll need a private car for your entire trip. Public transport won’t work, as our Day 2 activities begin directly from the homestay and require continuous private car access to ensure you can fully participate in all planned activities.

Our trips are about getting out into nature, often in remote locations. Please don’t expect luxury accommodations; we focus on providing comfortable basic facilities.
Food provided
We’ll provide basic, vegetarian meals. We do not serve non-vegetarian food.
