It is a travertine of hectometric dimensions, located on the southern side of the valley of the Segura River, in a sector very close between the Puntal of the Vultures (1680 m) and the Calar del Pino (1567 m). The travertine, attached to the steep carbonate side of the Cretaceous, has a higher flat morphology, on which the picturesque village of La Toba is located.

In the vertical walls of the travertine there are several karmic resurrections with spectacular water jumps and great beauty carbonate morphologies. Stratigraphically, the uprisings are at the base of the upper Cretaceous dolomies, which constitute the aquifer, on the waterproof levels that belong to the lower Cretaceous.

According to the description of several authors, 3? 4? 5? more than a watchtower would be a chastisement. Built in well-trimmed masonry, its plant is cylindrical with a semicircular wall that protects the entrance. It is located in height (about 2 meters above the ground level) and still retains remains of wood lintel from the door and its cap. There must have been a second floor, as inside the tower remains of beams from the wooden roof that separated both floors. It has two overlapping interior rooms and a terrace. The bottom of the tower is solid. The plants were covered with semi-spherical vaults, communicating with a 1.18 meters wide terraced staircase.

In general it is kept in good condition, although a great crack threatens to break it down

La Taberna Museo Restaurante Lagartijo, is a charming tavern dedicated to the tauromaquia and opened in March 1980. In it you can taste an excellent traditional cuisine in a tourist-cultural atmosphere decorated with billboards, photographs and taurine objects.

In the interior is the Museum and Restaurant Room, which has a select menu of kitchen recipes, with typical and traditional dishes, where the meats, peas, and especially the confected and baked ones stand out.

The hill of the Poyos de la Mesa is an inverted relief in which the dolomies of the Upper Cretaceous and the limestones of the discordant Miocene on them are affected by a sincerity perfectly visible from the north.

The fold is more tight in the older materials (Cretaceous dolomies), and is more open in the discordants (myocene limestones). Both litological sets flare at the top, very steep, of the relief. Between them there is a well-developed canchal, which marks approximately the axial plane of the fold.

The total power of the section is over 150 m. On a few sucrose dolomies attributed to the lower and medium Jurassic we find materials from the upper Kimmeridgian; they are limeals with large gastropods and corals that end up on an erosive surface with a crusts of iron oxides.

The following are limestones, locally sandy and margas, with various levels of interspersed calcrets; these materials are being decrified and dolomitised, giving way to stoned dolomies with abundant carbonous remains; this whole set of materials is of the age Hauteriviense- Barremiense. The lower Aptiense is characterized by the presence of sands, calcareous sandstone and sandy limestone with laminations and cross stratifications as well as orbitolins at various levels. The materials of the upper Aptiense have abundant rudists and orbitolins. The Albibe is represented by dolomies with black songs and ghosts of rudists.
