Local residents participate in scientific research programs within the reserve, contributing to the documentation of Mediterranean flora and fauna species.

Visitors can access the reserve daily from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM in summer and 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM during other seasons.

The reserve contains natural gypsum crystal formations at the base of an amphitheater-shaped valley, where juniper trees grow.
