My recent college trip to "Kaas pathar". We enjoyed a lot so I want share a glimpse of my journey. Kaas pathar is a plateau situated 25 kilometres from Satara falls under Sahyadrisubcluster of Western ghats and is a part of UNSECO WORLD HERITAGE.
We started our trip from Pune which is 141 km away from Kaas pathar it took 3 hours to reach there. We got concession on booking amount. But I strongly recommend to book online because government has restricted 3000 visitors per day. There is parking before 1 km of flower plateau. we have to park our private vehicle at parking. From there we have to use government transport. Kaas pathar comes under very high rainfall zone so there is a huge biodiversity in flora and fauna of this region , there are more then 850 different species of flowering plants.
Housing about 850 species of beautiful wildflowers ,the 1000 hectare area of the plateau is now a reserved forest which is famous for its natural beauty and flora ,it's kaas lake and it's beautiful landscape and scenic beauty.
