combuijs visited on 14th Jul 2015 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 3 Impressive stones on a nice location. We cycled from the Sølager camping site (near the Kulhuse ferry) along the Grønnehavevej, which makes a nice quiet short 2 km tour. Would not recommend doing this by car though. Grønnæssegård is indeed privately owned, but they have signposted a route to the monument.
praeceptor visited on 21st Mar 2011 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 3 To get access to the dolmen you can either follow the fine dirtroad from the mainroad (Amtsvejen 16) until just before you'll enter the farm, then turn left and follow the separaration between the forrest and the field some 180 meter to the east, from where you can get access to another dirtroad and follow that some 60 back in direction of the farm, until it meet another dirtroad on the field. Follow that dirtroad some 400 meter to the south east, where you soon will be able to see the dolmen between the trees.
It's perfectly legal to go here, only remember that you are a guest on the farmes private land. So, please be polite!
Instead of walking the bit at the outskirt of the forrest, it'll also be perfectly legal to enter the farm and turn left after the first building on your left hand.
