It is associated with the Peñas del Bú maar to the north, which follows the N-S eruptive alignment that opened this volcano, and with the La Cabezuela maar to the southeast. The outstanding heritage elements of this geosite are: the picón quarry, burials of indeterminate age and the hermitage of Santa Cruz.
