Zevruney Valley is located within the borders of Hasankeyf district of Batman province. Zevruney Valley, which is 33.45 km southeast of Batman centre, is located 1.75 km southeast of Hasankeyf centre.

During the studies carried out in the valley, cisterns associated with rock dwellings were encountered. The cisterns start from the top in a round plan and continue in the same way until the bottom. There are also step-like holes in the cisterns. It is thought that these holes were probably made in order to get inside the cisterns and clean them. The cisterns carved into the bedrock have lost their function today.
