The Arsen Okrojanashvili Cave Sustainable Development Project is in progress.

Situated in the village of Balda, Martvili municipality, this cave possesses remarkable ecotourism potential, which can significantly contribute to the region's progress by generating new employment opportunities and ultimately enhancing the socio-economic conditions of the local population.

For the purpose of determining the cave's safety hydrological, geological, and speleological research is in progress by the Experts from the Cave Administration of the Czech Republic. The cave will be monitored continuously for several months.

The Agency of Protected Areas obtained funding from the Czech Development Agency to initiate the Arsen Okrojanashvili cave development project. However, due to the pandemic, work on the project experienced delays and only resumed in the latter half of 2022.
