Far away in the woods, this dolmen was discovered in 1911. It has been restored with finesse and restraint, and no intention to reconstruct a complete dolmen.
For the pristine condition of the dolmen and the quietness and remoteness of the site, it is well worth making the effort of braving the 1200m field track up to here.
