Gres de Saint-Meen dolmen
Gres de Saint-Meen dolmen submitted by MenhirHunters : This one can be easily missed as it is in a hollow. It's only 10m away from the foot path, located north. There seems to be only one stone remaining, about three meters in length. (Vote or comment on this photo)

Coming from Iffendic on the D35, take the first road in Talensac to your left. It's marked as a blind alley. Follow the road until you reach a mobile phone antenna near the forest. You can park your car here. Take the footpath leading West into the forest.

After about 500m there is a tree marked "privé" in red letters. You should be able to spot the dolmen / menhir from there north of the foot path.
