FAQs About Dudhsagar Falls Trek Package from Bangalore
How long does it take to reach Dudhsagar Falls from Bangalore?

The route includes driving towards Goa and then to Kulem, the starting point of the trek.

When is the best time to visit Dudhsagar Falls from Bangalore?
From October to May is Dudhsagar trek best time because the weather is cool and pleasant. October to December are the post-monsoon months, and this is the time when the waterfall is in full glory, and the weather is also ideal for trekking. On the other hand, from January to February are winter months, and the trail is less crowded during this time. While the waterfalls are at their peak during monsoon months (june to september), heavy rains increase the challenge and trekking on slippery trails can be risky. From March to May are summer months, and daytime temperature remains warm, but evenings and mornings are cooler.
Do I need permits for the Dudhsagar trek?
Yes, trekkers need forest entry permits for the Dudhsagar trek because the trail passes through Bhagwan Mahavir Wildlife Sanctuary. One can easily obtain permits from the forest department office at the base camp. But individuals booking the Dudhsagar Trek Package from us don’t need to worry about this, as we have included permits in the package.

Is it safe to trek to Dudhsagar during the monsoon season?
It is not considered safe to go on this trek in the monsoon. The region receives heavy rainfall, resulting in slippery trekking trails and landslides. The streams are also in full flow, making it hard to cross them when trekking. While the waterfalls look most beautiful during these months, it is best to avoid trekking in the monsoon due to safety reasons.
What is the minimum & maximum age limit for the trek to Dudhsagar Waterfalls?

Can I trek to Dudhsagar Falls independently from Bangalore?
While you can easily travel to the Dudhsagar Falls region from Bangalore independently, trekking to Dudhsagar Falls without a local guide is not recommended due to safety reasons. The trail passes through a protected dense forest area, and you need permits and proper knowledge of the trek route.
