La Posadilla Viewpoint

Like other lagoons in the area, this one originated when magma came into contact with groundwater. The violent explosion generated a crater 500 meters in diameter and a maximum depth of 100 meters.

The lagoon is surrounded by a forest of holm oaks, kermes oaks, mastics and cornicabras. The lagoon water also attracts birds such as black and white storks, imperial eagles, short-toed eagles, golden eagles and black vultures.

The Laguna de la Posadilla or Fuentillejos is a maar, a lagoon in a hydromagmatic explosion crater. It is located in Valverde, in the municipality of Ciudad Real. The Laguna de la Posadilla is protected with the category of Natural Monument

Some dreamlike views and landscapes, the climb to the viewpoint is a bit complicated but it is worth it.
