Log Text: This dolmen, like the others in this valley, was very difficult to find, even with an advanced GPS. All paths that were once in the area are overgrown with sharp, thorny bushes and are easily lost amongst boulders, trees, drops and slopes. It was a very difficult and sunny descent. There are however pairs of stacked stones left by someone who occasionally visits some of these sites. Expect a difficult scrabble if you visit, bring water and tell someone where you are heading... it is real ankle breaking terrain... Still, the dolmens are pleasing, and bold, red on white signs can be seen on arrival... this can be useful as the bushes seem rampant.
This particular one is adjacent to an ephemeral river, which from erosion looks to be extremely fast occasionally. When i visited, midsummer, it was full of stagnant, frog filled ponds and thick, thick vegetation. Using the river for access probably wasnt worth the hassle. VERY difficult site to reach.
