La Hoya del Mortero is one of the maars that best preserves its structure in Campo de Calatrava. Its crater forms a depression about 30 meters deep and about 500 meters in diameter. To appreciate these dimensions, it is best to visit it and observe it from its edge. Currently there is an interpretive panel from which you have a good view of the whole and help to understand what we are seeing. Starting point of the Greenway of Ciudad Real.
