Ngisho nasekuseni okubandayo ekwindla, lapho amazinga omfula evame ukuba phansi, kunamanzi amaningi ageleza ezimpophomeni.
Umfula "uwela" kusendlalelo se-quartzite esiqinile nesithambile nge-limestone engezansi kokuqoshwa komhosha omfushane nochungechunge lwemigodi. Izimpophoma ziyakwazi ukubukwa futhi zithwetshulwe ngokuphepha kusuka emibonweni eyahlukahlukene nasemizileni yokuhamba ezungeza izimpophoma.

Kukhona indawo enhle yepikiniki enamatafula ayishumi epikinikini, izindawo zokukhosela zasekhishini nezindlu zangasese.
Ukusuka endaweni yokupaka uhamba ibanga elifushane udlula izindlu zangasese uye enqoleni yomfula. Indawo yepikiniki ingakwesobunxele nezimpophoma zingakwesokudla. Kunemibono okufanele uyithathe empophomeni evela ezinhlangothini zombili zomfula, kufaka phakathi ibhuloho eliwela ezansi nomfula impophoma.
