Dudhsagar Waterfalls Trip – Goa

Dudhsagar waterfalls is one of the most gorgeous water falls in India. It will hypnotize you, lead you into the land of dream and purge your soul. Dudhsagar literally means “Sea of Milk”, is often referred as one of Goa’s best kept secrets. This is where mandovi river plunges to the depths from a height of 600m, breaking into thousand shards of crystal. Streams of milk curving down the mountain leaves you enchanted and mystified. Adventurous journey through the wild and untamed jungles of Mollem National park holds the power to calm the agitations of your soul. I would suggest avoiding the rainy season altogether. The Dudhsagar waterfall is adequate throughout the year, and yes the water content increases during the rainy season. But it also becomes very dangerous during that season. Also, if you don’t like trek or walking in the tunnels, the locals can help with jeep arrangements to reach the waterfall from the castle rock station.

Thrilling off Road Experience

This mighty sea of milk on the edge of high peaks of the Sahyadri Western Ghats should be on your bucket list if you are the sorts who travel for soul rejuvenation. The momentum of waterfalls is so strong that from a distance it looks like the area around the waterfalls is covered with clouds. The jeep safari starting from Mollem, through the lush jungles of national park and finishing with the spectacular view of gushing waters of the dudhsagar rivulets, gives a thrilling off road experience. The roads leading to waterfall remain closed during the monsoon and opens in October. The steep mountain terrain also offers a thrilling trek as an experience. The route starting from Kuveshi village provides for a stimulating trek for the undaunted souls.

Bathing Experience

Dudhsagar waterfalls gives you an incredible bathing experience making it one of the most phenomenal bathing destinations across the world. The beautiful mountain with lush green trees and the milky water makes it exotic. Swimming or bathing activities under this fall is simply breathtaking. The couple of pools created by the waterfall gives you an unique experience that will lure you to this place again and again.

Dudhsagar waterfall: How to get there:

Dudhsagar is located at Goa-Karnaka boarder. There is no direct way to reach Dudhsagar. It is approximately around 60kms from Panjim and about 46 km east of Madgaon and 80 km south of Belgaum. Dudhsagar will commence after monsoon season (first week of October).

5 Reasons Art and Design Students Should Take School Trips

The essence of art and design pedagogy is balance. Students enter the classroom with a great desire to express their ambitious creativity. But, more often than not, overreaching ambitions and flights of grandeur need to be tempered by method and practised skill. Teachers will frustrate students, but setting them to their setsquares and measurements and principles of form pays off in the end.

Yet, once these tools begin to be instilled, there is a very vital need to maintain the fire of ambition and creativity. This can be done by taking students on tours abroad.

Revel in great works

Many school trips focus on taking art and design students to see great works of art and architecture. The way this inspires and ignites ambitions of creativity is fairly obvious. Time spent in the Louvre or observing architecture in Holland will show students a path to great art and design by observing footsteps and achievements of those who have walked such paths before them. There is great value in actually seeing, touching and experiencing such inspiration on a tour rather than simply second hand through photos and books.

Learn from the best

There are great art and design teachers the world over who work tirelessly to equip their students with the best balance of inspiration and skill. But the boon of school trips is that students can spend time with the best in their field who work daily in art and design. This can open the students’ eyes to new methods but can also point them to the way of perfecting the skills they have been learning in the classroom. In so doing, many students will gain not only more inspiration, but also better respect for the work of their teachers at home.

Be inspired by famous locations

After developing the skills and tools needed to paint or prepare architectural designs, students will no doubt look to great works as inspiration. But these works are a product of their times and context, and hence a true understanding of the classic and modern history of art and design can be attained from school trips. Students will be able to imbibe and absorb the cultural and historical milieu from which the works they admire so much sprung.

Understand the history

Another broad goal of art and design school trips is to show students the grand story of how important principles developed. There is a connected history to art and design, and from this history teachers teach important principles and show students a way to measure quality and greatness. Travelling to various locations and investigating the history behind great works will give students a much fuller sense of this overarching story than a simple narrative told in the classroom. In turn, this will help students not only be more inspired by direct contact with the locations of this history, but they will also appreciate the principles which have been picked up from this grand story.
