The town is located in a small oasis at the intersection of provincial routes 179 and 190. It has a very particular microclimate, with pleasant temperatures and only 15 days without sun in the year. The thing responsible for this climate is Cerro Nevado, a mountain 3, 810 meters high, which protects the place from climatic ups and downs. In the area there are several similar valleys, with a width of no more than 500 meters and an extension of no more than 10 km, after which the streams are lost in the wild desert of the area. The altitude rises to between 800 and 950 meters above sea level. Its main attraction is the natural water slopes, one of which is used for commercialization under the Punta del Agua brand. In the main valley there are the police, the health post, municipal delegation and the shops; but to the north and south of it there are other similar valleys parallel, such as that of Agua Segura. In 2006 the town expressed opposition to the mining operations in the area. There are many goat producers in the area. General Alvear, a modern agricultural town, is 90 kms away.
