Anta (Dolmen) standing beside the road N.221, North of Guarda, and clearly signposted for both directions. A small river, flowing nearby, adds to the charm of the site.

The traffic, although at just 15 m from the dolmen, is not too intense and does not perturb the quietness of the place.
Photo : March 2015.
