Abrskil Cave, Limestone cave in Otap village, Georgia

The cave extends over 2 kilometers through the mountain, featuring numerous stalactites, stalagmites, and natural limestone formations along a mountain river path.

The cave received attention from President Sergey Bagapsh in 2010, who initiated plans to restore the tourist route for supporting the local economy.

Named after a folk hero similar to Prometheus, Abrskil was imprisoned in this cave after challenging divine authority according to regional legends.

Visitors receive rubber boots at the entrance for the 800-meter route, which includes walking through knee-deep water sections along the illuminated gallery.

The cave contains six distinct chambers, with the Heliktitův Hall displaying natural limestone structures enhanced by strategic lighting installations.
