The cave is located on the right bank of the Kurjips River, on the northern slope of the Guam Ridge, about 2 km east of the village of Guamka. It is situated 400 meters above river level and features a shell-shaped niche with a vaulted ceiling, formed in reddish-gray heterogeneous metamorphosed limestone. The cave is 29 meters deep, with an entrance width of 29 meters and an entrance height of 15 meters, reaching a maximum height of 25 meters.

The cave was discovered in 1975 by V.E. Shchelinsky and was studied in the 1980s by the Kuban Expedition of the LOIA of the USSR Academy of Sciences, led by V.A. Trifonov. It has been inhabited at different times, as evidenced by traces of life from the Maykop tribes (3rd millennium BC), the people who built dolmens (late 3rd millennium BC and 15th century BC), late Bronze Age tribes not yet studied in Kuban, and medieval Adyghe tribes from the 10th to 14th centuries.

In the Apsheronsky District, in the basin of the Pshikha River, there are unconfirmed reports of stone fortresses and rock cemeteries, but archaeologists have not yet discovered or described them. This area has many burial mound groups, including in mountainous regions. Most of these burial sites were left by medieval Adyghe people, while a smaller portion dates back to the Bronze Age. In the Tverskaya stanitsa, there is a small municipal museum featuring archaeological exhibits.
