Geografy

Siete Aguas is situated on the mountain step dividing La Hoya de Buñol region from the Meseta de Requena (Meseta means altiplanicie).

El relief is very rough, irregular andy montainous. The few plane zones are located to the west and are a prolongation of the Meseta de Requena.

On the northern zone are growing up some mountain chains from northwest to southest. By the northwest we see Santa María chain and El Tejo peak, with aproximately 1.200 meters (Peñarrubia 977 m., el Alto del Malén 1.037 m. and the Santa María 1.137 m.), likewise the Sierra de La Cabrera.

By the south, and setting the natural limit of Buñol region, the Sierra de Malacara raises, with a calcary relief of more than 1.100 meters of altitude, formed by cretaceous materials and a peak of about 1.118 m (Nevera Peak). The other two mountain chains have iberic orientation and are very rich on fossils.
