Masai Plateau, Protected plateau in Kolhapur district, India.
The Masai Plateau extends over 533.92 hectares at 900 meters above sea level, featuring seasonal wildflowers and diverse plant species including orchids and carnivorous flora.
The Maharashtra government designated Masai Plateau as a conservation reserve under the Wildlife Protection Act in October 2022, establishing new boundaries within Panhala forest ranges.
Local residents gather at the Masai Devi temple during the annual Dasara festival, connecting the natural landscape with regional religious traditions.
The plateau sits 30 kilometers west of Kolhapur city, with several villages including Bandivade, Badewadi, and Injole integrated within the conservation reserve boundaries.
The plateau harbors specialized plant species like Utricularia and Drosera indica, which capture and digest insects for additional nutrients in this elevated environment.
