Vorontsov Caves are the largest in the region, and perhaps the most mysterious: sea inhabitants, then saber-toothed tigers and cave bears, and then primitive people settled under these arches. You will breathe in the healing air of the caves, make amazing shots. And then you will walk through the Colchis forest and drink water from the Demeter stream.

What awaits you
Underground kingdom We will walk along the upper level of the caves: you will hear about their appearance and geological features, find out why Count Vorontsov bought them and what happened here during the war. Going down to the grotto "Prometheus", marvel at the height of the vaults and bizarre stalagnates, find out where the giant boulders came from. The unusual shape of the stalactites in the Luster and Music Hall will tell you where their names came from. And traces of animal microorganisms and fossilized shells will remind you that the Tethys Ocean once splashed here
The silence of the forest and the murmur of a stream The excursion program includes not only caves: you will also have a walk through the Colchis forest, which is part of the National Park. Under the cover of green vaults, we will go to the statue of the ancient Greek goddess Demeter, awaiting her daughter, Persephone, from the kingdom of Hades. Here you can also drink clear water from a mountain spring.
