It is the time when the wild flowers pop up and smile at us……these are found everywhere, but the best place to see the wildflowers in Maharashtra is undoubtedly the KASS PLATEAU near Satara. With some amazing trips to Kaas plateau, Satara last year....on a popular demand, this year too *Nature** India* has organized a trip to this amazing place. *Date: 11th to 13th Sep, 2009 (Friday to Sunday)* *Place: Kass Plateau & Thoseghar Waterfalls, Satara, Maharashtra* Maharashtra is a region of wonders. One such amazing place is situated about 26kms from Satara known as Kaas plateau. These table top plateaus on the surrounding mountains has thin layer of lateritic soil, also known as “sadda” in Marathi. On this, bloom hundreds of flowers of variety of colours and shape. The whole spectacle is beyond words. More than 300 varieties of wild flowers, herbs, orchids, shrubs, insectivorous plants etc. can be seen here in August, September & October and transform this place literally into a heaven…….It is a must visit to anyone who loves happiness. This "Out of the world" place deserves a visit atleast once a year from 15th Aug to 15th Oct to witness not only the amazing array of wild flowers, but also the serene atmosphere that mesmerizes one's soul..... It is a photographers paradise too :-) For details, please click below http://natureindiatours.blogspot.com/2009/06/kass-satara-plateau-of-flowers-4th-to.html Or sign up & see in http://natureindia.ning.com/ A *special 10% discount* will be given to those interested in this trip, * who* had already come with Nature India to Kaas last year :-) Looking forward for a wonderful trip with you all !!
