Perched in the Sierra de las Medias Lunas, this volcanic lagoon is one of the most beautiful in this region due to its red splash deposits on the edge of the main crater, which are what also give it its name (Peñarroya).
The lagoon or maar is more than a kilometer in diameter and is surrounded by Mediterranean forest, holm oak meadows and pastures.

This natural monument is located between the municipalities of Alcolea de Calatrava and Corral de Calatrava and is included in the Campo de Calatrava volcanic complex. The volcano stands out for its magnificent 60 m cone. high, one of the best examples of Strombolian-type buildings. The lagoon was formed when lava from the volcano imprisoned the Lobo stream.

Volcanic lagoon, rocky path and difficult path to climb to the top, good mountain route..
You have to take the detour through a row of path that goes to the left where we find a sign that indicates a natural monument.
