Update: Flowers Blooming phase at Kaas Pathar (plateau)
As on July 31, 2025
As per latest update, Flowers will start blooming at "Kaas Pathar" / "Kaas Plateau" by mid of the month of September 2025, and by end of October the blooming season will end. The next upcoming batch of group tour is scheduled on September 20, 2025 where in you can expect to see millions of Flowers at Kaas Pathar (plateau). During this blooming season the entire landscape is filled with flowers creating a spectacular view.
FACT CHECK – Kaas Pathar Flowers Early blooming ❌
This viral content is misleading. Here's the real update from our side:
The famous full bloom of Kaas happens only after the monsoon ends, when the soil is moist and sunlight + humidity levels go up. This usually means Mid-September to Mid-October is the correct time for the main bloom.
Early blooming - What happened this year?
Due to some unexpected climate changes, pre-monsoon rain hit Satara in mid-May, followed by a short dry and humid spell for about 10-12 days. This triggered a few local flowers to bloom early. These are barely 0.1 percent of flowers that can be seen during the blooming season. Most of these are local flowers found growing on road-sides in entire region. Not the ones that Kaas is famous for.
The viral images floating around are either Clicked during peak bloom in 2021 (Sept), or Or show a few scattered wildflowers, not the famous multi-color flower carpet of Kaas.
Important Note:
These May-June month flowers die-off in a couple of days, and do not represent the actual Kaas Flower Festival experience that lakhs of tourists wait for every year. If you're planning to visit Kaas, do not rely on viral posts or old images. We recommend waiting for the official blooming window around Sept-October when Kaas Pathar truly transforms into a flower paradise.
