You cannot trek from Castlerock to Dudhsagar, the RPF will precisely ask you a question at Castlerock station and will ask you to go back if you had planned to trek to Dudhsagar.
However you can make a train trip to Goa and have a glimpse of the same, but dont get down on the tracks you will be fined.

The amazing Dudh Sagar water falls is now flowing to its full glory after some good rains in the past week. (23, June 2015)
Dudh Sagar Falls has been an attraction for everyone who travels by train to Goa, which lies amidst the Briganza Ghat (as locally known) in the belt of Western Ghats in the state of Goa bordering Karnataka. Dudh Sagar Falls is located adjacent to the Railway Track on Goa-Londa route. Dudh Sagar (Sea of Milk) as it is known is believed to have derived its name from an incident where a princess who covered herself by throwing milk in order to hide herself.
Dudh Sagar fall boosts of an awesome height of 310 Meters, is the 5th highest waterfall in India and Ranks 227th in the world. The waterfall forms couple of pools which adds to the scenic beauty amidst the Green Jungles of Western Ghats. But Swimming is highly risky in these ponds.
The members of the Belgaum Photographers circle visited this falls yesterday to get you these amazing pics. They biked until Castlerock and from there trekked all the way to the falls which is about 15 kms.
How to reach there :
The Best time to visit Dudh Sagar Falls is during Rainy season & if one if adventurous of Trekking and a nature lover Dudh Sagar is a place one can never Miss. But carrying own Lunch and Snacks is highly recommendable as there is not even a Tea stall to cater the needs of tourists.
Express trains ply to & fro everyday from Londa Junction everyday but at odd hours & only on Sundays there runs a convenient train from Belgaum in the morning and in return there is only a single convenient Express Train in the Evening.

Logically speaking ,The government should make arrangements for cafeteria’s ,tea shops, restaurants being a World heritage site.
THEN OUR GOVERMENT OFFICERS WILL GET ONE MORE SOURCE OF GETTING BRIBE,
Let public have hotels, cafeteria etc, as we know how our belgaum tourism office near BUDA office at lake is getting converted into a bhooth bangla, I doubt the officers may be there on records getting their salary and they would be doing private jobs as well- this is INDIA anything can happen- its GODS own country
and Nail Sir how about Mulitplex, Shopping Complex, amuzment park, casino????????????
and thereafter pollution plastic cups, chips packed and every bekar thing will get over there
