TheCaptain visited on 26th May 2005 - their rating: Cond: 4 Amb: 4 Access: 4 This is a lovely little dolmen sitting on top of a nice little mound, which is still a couple of metres high, but which is not much larger than the by now standard chamber 4 metres long, 1.8 metres wide, facing 104°. It aligns directly to a significant hill, the Puech de las Fadès, which has a significant cliff face and what looks to be a shaped top, to which many legends are attached. It is quite easily found, and signposted, but there isnt anywhere to park a camper van without obstructing the track, so I was in a bit of a hurry here.

The mound is not much larger than its standard sized chamber 4 metres long, 1.8 metres wide, facing 104°. It aligns directly to a significant hill, the Puech de las Fadès (hill of the fairies), which has a significant cliff face and what looks to be a shaped top, to which many legends are attached.
The residents of this hill, be they of the fairy kind or human kind, are said to have built this dolmen.
The dolmen is quite easily found, and signposted, but there isn't anywhere to park a camper van without obstructing the track, so I was in a bit of a hurry here.
