During periods of high flow, the water level rises to the point where it reaches the highway, filling the karst valley extensively and forming a lake. During periods of high water, the Salajõgi River flows out of numerous springs sites and the so-called Tiberna hole, which is up to 20 metres wide and 2.5 metres deep. The hole is located 0.6 km southwest of the fields.
