The waterfall received official protection as a natural monument from the Ministry of Forest and Water Management in 2001. This designation safeguarded the site from development and recognized its environmental importance.
The waterfall serves as a central gathering point for local residents who share regional traditions and customs with visitors throughout the year.
Visitors access the waterfall by descending wooden staircases from a nearby bridge. Parking is available at the entrance, and admission fees apply for both vehicles and visitors.
Water flows through natural underground passages before emerging as the visible cascade. These hidden water routes create underground formations such as stalactites, adding a geological wonder to the site.
