Description of Vorontsovskaya Cave

The Vorontsov caves have the largest labyrinth system of passages in terms of area 11,720 meters (12 km), but of course, no one is going to exhaust ordinary tourists with such a long route, this is the work of real speleologists. But for those who just want to get in touch with the beautiful world of Mother's creation - nature, with bizarre sculptures resembling fairy-tale characters and various animals (stalactites, stalagmites, stalagnates), forty minutes is enough for this.

You will be accompanied by a specially trained guide, by the way, not without a sense of humor. The trail itself is equipped and there is electric lighting, so the route does not present any particular difficulties for either the elderly or children.

The air in the cave is literally delightful, and, most importantly, healing. The composition of the air in the cave is unique, it destroys the pathogenic microflora in the nasopharynx and upper respiratory tract (in the trachea, bronchus). Despite the considerable remoteness, the Vorontsov caves are in great demand, and sometimes you have to wait a few minutes to go down to the cave. This is necessary so that one group does not interfere with the other, because the underworld does not tolerate fuss and loves silence...

The beauty of nature near the cave leaves no one indifferent. Tall trees keep you cool even on the hottest days. There is also an equipped source with the purest spring water, which you can drink without fear. The atmosphere of the Caucasian Colchis forest captivates with its beauty. Knowing this, there are many equipped places for recreation (arbors, benches).

The caves are a protected object, so you can get there only at certain hours from 10-00 to 18-00 at any time of the year. By the way, the temperature in the cave is always the same regardless of the time of year +12 degrees, therefore, for especially sensitive, slightly hardened people, it is recommended to take light socks or a windbreaker from home, but nothing more, since the body very quickly adapts to a pleasant, beneficial cave microclimate.

Whoever loves nature will surely be struck by the world of contrast, many who have been here once tend to come here again. There is something in this excursion, for those who know how to listen to silence and read between the lines, which cannot be formulated and conveyed verbally, it can only be felt... Hurry to know the WORLD, because when we know the world, we first of all know ourselves.
