Description High up on this mountain ridge between the villages of Fesluns and Ansignan in Pyrénées-Orientales can be found the remains of this cute little dolmen. I followed signs from Ansignan, but walked because I was not going to get the camper van up the tiny little roads. I had no idea how far it was going to be to the dolmen, and perhaps wouldnt have started out had I known in advance. It turned out to be almost an hour brisk uphill walk before I made it to the dolmen. Was it worth it ?

Yes Martyn, as all of them are! Incidentally, where are you posting from now, if you are having trouble finding a camping place - (your comment under another pic)? It MUST be cold camping out in March!

My French stonehunting trip finished last October Angie. I am now safely back at home and suffering the mundane "normality" of being back in full time employment, which leaves little time to do other things ! But I expect it will take me another year or two to get the trip all properly written up and site details and pictures posted here of the thousand or so sites I visited !
