The Peña de la Virgen viewpoint is located near the Entrepeñas and Buendía reservoirs, close to the village of Buendía, within the municipality of Sacedón. It is situated very near: Santa María de Poyos, a submerged village now in ruins (2 km to the northwest). Buendía (6 km to the south). Cañaveruelas (9 km to the east). From this viewpoint, there are beautiful views of the Buendía reservoir, making it a popular spot for enjoying the scenery.

A watering trough prepared for cattle in the style of the cattle ranches of the mountains. It is always good to meet one of them to refill water.

It is a small town in the cereal steppe of La Mancha irrigated by the Riánsares. It can be seen from afar thanks to the tower of its church. The winding hills covered with scrub that surround it give the landscape a special charm.
