Located in the upper part of Adala Volcanic Canyon, the waterfall was formed on the basalts emerging from the Kaplan volcano cone. Approximately 300 thousand years ago, lava from the Kaplan Volcano cone filled the Gediz valley, and subsequently Gediz formed a new bed on these lavas and even split its bed with the effect of tectonic movements in the region. When Kaplan Volcano became active again about 25 thousand years ago, new lava reaching the valley partially filled the Gediz valley and shifted the river to the north in this section. Today, the waterfall is located on the steepness formed by the basalts, which are approximately 300 thousand years old, by the backward erosion wave of Gediz. The approximate height of the waterfall is 25 meters. The flow rate of the waterfall is determined by the amount of water released from the Demirköprü Dam to the natural bed of the river.
