The waterfall is on one of the tributaries of the Aksu River, where the tributary drops from Antalya's plateau to the coastal plain. It is situated in the midst of a pine forest of exceptional beauty, and the environs provide a picnic and pleasure spot about twenty minutes by car from the centre of the city of Antalya.

The waterfall and its surroundings covering an area of 586.5 ha (1,449 acres) was declared a nature park by the Ministry of Environment and Forest on May 21, 1991.[1]

All year round, safari tours with all-terrain vehicles are being organized near the waterfall.[2]
