Rain.. Rail Track.. Trek : Glory of Dudhsagar - Part 3


Continued from Here

Finally we reached the mighty roaring Dudhsagar falls by 6pm in the evening.
Already falls was partially covered by the dense fog.We took some snaps around the falls
and quickly acquired our camping site.As monsoon season is the peak time to
visit the falls,make sure that u get shelter for ur overnight stay.
Surprisingly there was nobody near the falls when we reached at 6pm.
So quickly we pitched our two tents in the nearby wooden view point.

take a look at some snaps in the evening . .

We woke up early in the morning around 5am.Our plan is to trek again 1km further towards Kulem.
So that we can view full glory of Dudhsagar falls.Full view of the falls can be enjoyed from here.
As per our plan we proceeded 1km towards kulem and really enjoyed the view point . .
Again one has to cross two tunnels in order to reach the view point.

As of our plan we reached DDS station exactly at 8:00am.Kacheguda bound Amaravathi exp arrives to DDS station at 9am.So, we've got still one more hour to spend at DDS . We took bath in the nearby falls and prepared ourselves to cath the train which would stop at DDS station not more than 30 sec . . You have to be quick enough to get into the train.Coz there will be lots of passengers eager to get into the train.Ticket is not necessary till castle rock station. .I tried to get into train's engine . .lol .. but engine driver din't allowed us Finally we turned towards General compartment and ensured our presence in the train . .Exactly not more than 30 sec, we heard the whistle of Amaravathi exp and it was sad moment to leave DDS. Sayonara DDS . . and for sure,am gonna visit DDS N-number of times in my life time.
