Located in the middle of the La Serena Reservoir and at 501 meters above sea level, it offers us wonderful views at 360 degrees. The Masatrigo hill, for sure, will surprise us with its shape and its curious name. It is called this way because for many its shape is assimilated to a pile of wheat.

The Serena Reservoir is one of the largest reservoirs in Badajoz and where a road crosses it, skirting a mountain called Masatrigo. This is a curious passage through the swamp but beautiful for the views it offers.

The views from up here are truly amazing and a well-deserved reward for the effort to get here. The ascent has complicated sectors with technical difficulty but that can be overcome without problems, remember to go with a firm step and taking care of the loose rocks.
