Satara is a city situated within the district of the same name in the Indian state of Maharashtra.
The city lies at the convergence of the River Krishna and its tributary; River Venna. Established in the 16th century the city was the seat of the Raja of Satara and it derived its name from Seven-forts (Sat-Tara) which are located close to the city. After Muslim invasion and subsequent decline, Satara remained the seat of Chhatrapati Shivaji. The Marathas never gave up their control and till today, the successors of Chhatrapati Shivaji inhabit Satara albeit not like rulers.

Historical inscriptions indicate the oldest known place in Satara as Karad, which definitely is a must see for history lovers. It is also believed that the Pandavas of Mahabharata fame stayed in Wai, a temple town with mythical links, for some time of their exile. A unique statue of Shivaji stands near a canon at Powai Naka at Kaas Flower plateau which is now a World Natural Heritage site and one of the prime sightseeing places in Satara.

Best Time to Visit Satara

The summers in Satara are often unbearably hot and contribute to lower tourist activity. With day time temperatures often touching 40°C, you would most likely spend time within your hotel rooms.

The Monsoon and the pre-monsoon period is the best time to visit Satara as the Kaas plateau is awash with a colorful covering of wild flora, very seasonal but a heritage to the world and a unique bio diversity hotspot. Since only 2000 visitors are allowed to enter the Zone per day, a net check in would be advisable to avoid disappointments. The August to October period would be the ideal time to experience light drizzles, misty mountain sides, strolling strawberry fields and many other unique experiences.

The November to February winter period sees a dip in temperatures, with average temperatures reaching as low as 11°C. With a drier climate, touring would be a pleasure. Early morning walks to see sunrises and enjoy forested grassy views would be pleasurable. Boating upon the Koyna and Krishna would make for breath-taking views and fill your lungs with fresh air as you take in the surrounding beauty.

Med 47 arranges for your reception, accommodation and sightseeing through various tour packages. Welcome to Satara and thoroughly enjoy a short or long trip with our hospitality!
