The stratovolcano rises 1,172 meters above the coastal plain between San Vicente and San Miguel volcanoes, featuring a deep summit crater of 300 meters.

The volcanic structure formed over centuries through successive layers of lava flows, volcanic ash, and debris, contributing to the current geological formation.

Local farmers maintain traditional agricultural practices on the volcano's fertile slopes, growing various crops including coffee and sugarcane.

The volcano location at coordinates 13.4397375, -88.5324749 allows visitors to access the site through marked trails during the November to March dry season.

The summit crater contains active fumaroles where volcanic gases emerge through ground fissures, making it relevant for geological research and monitoring.
