The protected area spans 78,360 hectares across the northern region of Palencia, featuring mountain peaks reaching heights over 2,500 meters.

The park received its initial name from Cueva del Cobre, which local residents considered the origin point of the Carrión River.

The surrounding region contains numerous Romanesque buildings, forming part of a significant medieval route along the Camino de Santiago.
