Spring water named Karasu, which outcropped from the valley slope, overspread on the landslide earth mass and formed a layer of travertine.

In the long run, the stream submerged under the natural barrage and formed an underground water tunnel, which is a cave of about 500 m (1,600 ft).

[2][3] The cave and the waterfall are named after the place "Yerköprü", which means literally "ground bridge".

[3] The site has paved walkways, shelters with outdoor furniture for picnic and a car parking lot.

The waterfall can be best observed in a bird's eye view from the nearby Çakallar village, which is situated at an elevation of 1,000 m (3,300 ft),.
