The falls is located in the hills of Goa off a bumpy highway NH-4A, about 45 Kms from Madgao. The destruction of the road and red mud colors of the tarmac is a result of Iron Ore mining in the area and spill over from mining trucks that speed along this highway.

Dudhsagar Falls is listed as India's 5th tallest waterfall

There is a small rail station about 50 feet near the waterfalls and some trains halt here for 2 mintutes.
