Kaas plateau which is also known Kaas pathar. People also call it valley of flowers for a valid reasons. Kaas plateau is situated in Satara and falls under Sahyadri sub cluster. It is about 140 km from Pune and 267 km from Mumbai. The plateau is well known for various types of SEASONAL wild flowers bloom in the month of August and September and lasts till mid Oct. During the full season the place looks like a flower carpet and becomes paradise for photographers, backpackers and travellers. In the year of 2012 Kaas plateau was declared as World Natural Heritage site by UNESCO (United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization). This place was in my bucket list for last 2 years and finally I decided to visit this year. Every year I used to plan but due to uncertain circumstances could not able to go to Kaas Pathar. We booked the tickets a week in advance to avoid any last minute rush. This is because only 3000 people are allowed in a day to visit Kaas pathar and this time I did not want to miss it. Also, there is a time slot as follows: 1. 7AM–10AM 2. 10AM-1PM 3. 1PM-4PM 4. 4PM-7PM
