Pretty easy to find at the GPS location provided here, located in the center of the village, nearby the town hall and the church.
More precisely it's sharing the village soccer field (!), and this stone stands here with no explanations.
It looks splited horizontaly, and an interesting thing to know is there is a cave entry which could have hosted people (no info about that though).
It's about 25 minutes from there, through a wonderful old path in the forest, easy to access.

On this path there's a little game in french, to learn to children animals, and which could retain their attention during the walk.
