Altitude of the bodies of the order of 10 or 11 meters in total. LIDAR data confirm a ground level elevation of 2017 m. Peñarroya is a chromotoponym that refers to the color of the rocks that make up the mountain. The spelling in the Spanish language is Peñarroya and in the Aragonese language Penyarroya or Peñarroya depending on the spelling chosen for the palatal nasal. The origin of the toponym is quite clear. It combines the common noun peña, from the Latin PĭNNAM, 'battlement', with the adjective RŭBEŭS, -A, -UM 'blond'. The toponym reflects the reddish hue of the terrain. The spelling Penya (in addition to others such as Penna or Peña) is included in many medieval texts in Aragon.
