alchemille visited on 13th Mar 2016 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 4 The Dolmen de Loubaresse is found in the road between Le Broc and Issoire in the department of Puy de Dôme. It is a medium size dolmen with a big capstone. The stones are dark, probably volcanic.
The dolmen is situated 5 minutes away from the national road, and walking through a narrow path through a wood. The dolmen is on the hillside. I could only take pictures from two sides as there is a barbed wire around the field where the dolmen is sitting. It is clear the site is a private property. However there is sign in the national road pointing to the megalithic site.
