It is the main drainage route of the Harod Valley[1] The elevation is 500 metres (1,600 ft) above sea level at the source and 230 metres (750 ft) below sea level at the mouth (at 32°30′52″N 35°33′10″E / 32.5144°N 35.5528°E / 32.5144; 35.5528).

[3] While the original sources of the water are karst springs,[4] most of the stream's water comes from the discharge of numerous fish ponds, irrigation systems, and sewage.

Rain floods are rare, and the upper flow of the stream is dry during most of the time.

[2] The network of the stream and its tributaries is mostly man-made, and natural riverbeds are preserved at the southern steep slopes of the valley.
