Dear Riders,
Bringing you the new routes & destinations, we at TMI riders, invite you to Car & Bike Ride to Amba Ghat, Maharashtra on 3-4-5th April 2015.
Amba is situated on the Western Ghats at the height of 3100 feet on Kolhapur - Ratnagiri national highway (NH-204) and this is the highest spot in Kolhapur district. Amba is actually a reserve forest area which falls in the buffer zone of the Sahyadri Tiger Reserve and Dajipur Bison Sanctuary.
Today, Amba Ghat is a a beautiful hill Station in Maharashtra, unlike other hill stations it has limited tourist traffic and was recently awarded the world heritage status. Amba's serene and natural surroundings make it a complete de-stress zone and one can spend hours staring at the silent valleys below.
Amba ghat is blessed with a rich variety of flora and fauna and being amidst of the Dajipur Bison sanctuary, it is a bird watcher's paradise offering a wide variety of wildlife. Similarly, there is a large variety of plants and trees and one will find the rare Tamhan flower tree here, which has been declared the state flower of Maharashtra. To add to the tourist's delight they will get great pleasure in plucking and eating fruits like Java plums (jamun/jambhul) or Rose-apples which are found here in abundance.
