Prehistoric site along the highway A75 (La Méridienne) within the rest- and parking place “Aire de Chalet”. The foot-path on top of the hill shows information panels, a menhir and a tumulus.
For the menhir at that spot watch this:
Chassagne menhir (Megalithic portal)
The very ruined tumulus can be found a little bit further at
N 45.27371 E 3.21134
