**Dolmen des Pennes** submitted by philipb : Site in Auvergne: Haute-Loire (43) France. Side view of the Dolmen at Les Pennes hamlet. (Vote or comment on this photo)

This Domen, near a hamlet called "Les Pennes" is just SE of the intersection of the D15 and D500. Drive south on the side road to Aulagnier-Grand, to the small bridge over the Lignon; at that point the dolmen is few hundred yards/meters to your left. Park at the curve of the road just south of bridge and follow the dirt path east 200 yards.
