One of the finest megalthic tombs in Galicia. It's 2.70 m. long and quite well preserved. On the carrying stones there are some cupmarks. It's one of the youngest dolmens in Galicia.
You can reach the dolmen by a footpath, it's located south from the town Berdoias (follow the signs from the main road).
