The stone circle is located in dense spruce forest just west of the forest path and consists of five small stones in a circle. The circle has a diameter of approx. 2.5 m. The stones vary in size from 22x33 cm to 51x46 cm. The sunken road is located in sloping terrain, approx. 10 m South East of the stone circle. The hollow road is clearly marked; approx. 2.5 m wide and up to 1 m deep at most. The road has a total length of approx. 85-90 m, but is broken in several places. In the southern part of the route, the roadway has three runs; one marked and two less visible.
