Official website for Online booking. We give you an opportunity to explore Kaas along with few handpicked locations by our team, this Itinerary is designed in a way to get the best experience. On this Tour, We'll be visiting Kaas Plateau/ Kaas Pathar, Magnificant Thosegar waterfalls, Vajrai Waterfalls, Sajjangad Fort, Camping under the stars at a lakeside location, and visiting a Secret Waterfall.  Kaas Plateau, famously known as "Maharashtra's Valley Of Flowers," emerges as a serene forest plateau located just 25 kilometers away from Satara, Maharashtra. This enchanting landscape stands as a testimony to rich biodiversity, characterized by vibrant and sprawling meadows. A significant feather in its cap, Kaas Plateau earned its spot on the UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site list in 2012. Here, you'll encounter a treasure trove of endangered flowers and endemic butterflies, with a remarkable 624 species finding a place in the IUCN Red Data Book. Among these, 39 species exclusively call the Kaas Region their home. Nestled within the grandeur of the Sahyadri Mountains, Kaas Pathar unveils a kaleidoscope of colorful meadows, adorned with delicate blooms. These flowers, however, grace the land for a brief period each year, typically from September to October, although this window may shift due to natural influences. As the blooming season commences, new flowers unfurl nearly every day, creating a spectacle that never ceases to amaze.
