Wild One Wilderness Stay

Hidden deep within the forested landscapes of Dodamarg lies Wild One — a remote wilderness stay surrounded by dense forest, perennial streams, hidden waterfalls, and one of the richest biodiversity belts of the northern Western Ghats.

This is a place where forest trails begin at your doorstep, nightfall reveals an entirely different world, and the surrounding landscape feels far removed from highways, crowds, and everyday noise.

Spread across a vast forested landscape, Wild One functions as both a nature stay and a field station for those curious about the wild side of Konkan.

Days unfold through waterfall trails, river explorations, forest walks, birdlife, herping sessions, natural pools, and slow conversations around food and nature. Nights belong to the sounds of the forest or simply gathering around the bonfire.

Wild One offers an opportunity to experience the Western Ghats beyond viewpoints and sightseeing; through ecology, exploration, and time spent inside the wilderness itself.

This is for you if: You’re looking for a nature stay near Goa, a wildlife-focused getaway in Sindhudurg, an offbeat monsoon escape, or simply a few days surrounded by forests, rivers, and waterfalls, Wild One offers an experience deeply rooted in the wild landscapes of Konkan.

The Wild one - wildlife field station was at the top of the hill , you need to drop your vehicle at the parking lot and then travel to the resort by their vehicle. It was a completely off road and single lane road. *Hospitality* at the resort is the *best*, you will never hear a 'NO' from any of the staff. The reception team were always ready to improve themselves and to satisfy customer requirements.
