Visit to 'Kaas pathar' was on my to do list since long. But
one needs to visit this place only in September to see the bloom. Got a chance this season and decided to take
a roadtrip to Kaas.
It’s a place where every nature lover and a photographer
would find solace. Kaas plateau located approximately 25 km from Satara town
and 267 km from Mumbai. Every year during the month of September this place
blooms with multitude of Jambhali chirayat, Sonakee,Nisurdi ,Kavala etc to name
a few.This road trip to the beautiful landscape and also covers the famous
Thoseghar waterfall (25 km from Satara) and Chalkewadi windmill farm.
A 6 hr drive from Mumbai took us to Satara, from there
proceeded towards Thoseghar and Chalkewadi. The first set of pictures belong to
this place.
