A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Kaas Plateau is also called as Maharashtra's Valley of Flowers! An ideal place to view some rare species of flowers and plants that are endemic to the Western Ghats. The Kaas Plateau, popularly referred to as the "Plateau of Flowers," is a well-known tourist destination in Maharashtra and a well-liked picnic location in the late monsoon season. The plateau is around 1,000 hectares in size and is located at an elevation of 1200 m. The Kaasa tree is where the name "Kaas" comes from. More than 850 distinct blooming plant species can be found in Kaas, 624 of which are on the IUCN Red List. These include carnivorous plants like Drosera Indica, shrubs like the Karvy, and orchids.
The Koyna Dam's catchment region is the Kaas Plateau, which provides a view of the Koyna Wildlife Sanctuary's extensive evergreen forests.
