Natural cave Sakinule, Racha-Lechkhumi and Lower Svaneti, Georgia

In the depths of Racha, in the heart of the Ambrolauri municipality, hides a unique miracle - Sakinule, or as the locals call it “the freezer”. This natural cave, located at an altitude of 1200 meters above sea level, is like a treasure trove of ancient ice formations.

Inside the cave are hidden majestic ice stalactites and stalagmites, as well as centuries-old ice columns, reaching a height of up to 8 meters and framed by a circumference of 20 meters. This amazing ice world captures the imagination and transports visitors into a mystical atmosphere.

Sakinule is not just a cave, it is a source of eternal coolness. At any time of the year, the temperature here is zero degrees, and drops of water flowing from the rock instantly turn into ice, creating amazing shapes and patterns on the ground.

To get to Sakinule, you should go to the village of Nikortsminda and travel only 3 kilometers along the road passing next to the Nikortsminda church. Then, at a distance of 2.5 kilometers from the village, a dirt road begins that will lead to the cave. The last half a kilometer will have to be covered by a walking trail, which takes guests straight to the entrance to the wonderful world of Sakinule. Don't forget to follow the signs that will help you not get lost on the way to this miracle of Georgia.

Sakinule offers a unique experience of immersing yourself in the mysterious world of ice and stone, which amazes with its beauty and uniqueness. This place is ideal for nature lovers, travelers and those who seek to discover new facets of the mysterious world that hides in the depths of the Georgian land.
