Cycling
It is an elliptical depression, whose major axis is almost nine kilometers long and whose edges rise on average up to almost 200 m above the level of the flat bottom. Originated as a result of repeated volcanic eruptions which occurred about 200 thousand years ago, it was later occupied by the waters of a lake. The polecats, which give the name to this locality, are residual manifestations of volcanic activity consisting of emissions of gases and vapors containing hydrogen sulphide.
