It is situated in Gücüksu location of Ceviz Plateau in Yahyali District of Kayseri. It is a sinkhole where the alluvia accumulated inside the bank made meanders, and made its course around the limestone rocks and sunk, which helps the 5x5 km large bank to discharge its waters. It was surveyed and mapped by MAD in August 2003. The expectations towards a flooded section inside the cave was not realized. A survey where various research possibilities are applied in abundance is advised [MAD 14: 15].
