Join us for an unforgettable journey into Georgia's industrial past with our one-day Urbex tour to Chiatura and the Katskhi Pillar from Tbilisi. Your adventure begins in the morning when your driver and guide meet you at your hotel or apartments in Tbilisi.

First, we will visit the awe-inspiring Katskhi Pillar, a breathtaking 40-meter (130 ft) natural limestone monolith that towers over the Karshuna River gorge. At the top of the pillar, you will find a reconstructed 8th-century church and a small monastery where the only inhabitant is a monk named Maxime. He has lived in solitude and silence here for over 25 years, making this an extraordinary spiritual destination.

Next, we will journey to Chiatura, an industrial town founded in the late 1800s, which played a vital role in Georgia's mining industry. The town offers a glimpse into a bygone era with its unique and Soviet-era cable car system still in use by locals. This transport system has over a dozen operating ropeway lines for passengers and two cargo lines for transporting manganese. The total length of the cableway exceeds 6,000 meters.

As we explore the town, you will discover fascinating examples of brutalist architecture and hidden gems of the Soviet past.
