Log Text: Leaving from Opakua its the first left after ascending the mountain. Approximately 3K in the paved road makes a sharp turn to the left but a dirt road continues straight. The menhir is just off the junction down the dirt road. If you see a straight line of stones along side of the dirt road you have gone a bit too far. A refuge for shepherds or hikers is about 1k further on the dirt road.

Log Text: Sadly this is the result of overzealous archeologists, historians and public officials. This magnificent dolmen has now been "preserved" -- truly entombed -- and has lost its function as a sacred site. The idea that a structure at least 5000 years old needs a huge wooden roof (that may last 100 years) to protect it is ridiculous. The objects found could be conserved in a museum and the site left in the state that has preserved it for the last 5000 years.

Dolmen de Axeitos submitted by ernar on 30th Sep 2004. The Dolmen de Axeitos is one of the most beautiful portal tombs in Galicia. In this case, the reforested eucaliptus shiled the site from the populated surroundings. Note to the editor: This picture should be linked with the 'Axeitos' Dolmen in Spain. Which in turn should be allocated to Galicia. Warm Regards Jorge aka Ernar

Grand Dolmen du Ferrussac submitted by stewart on 3rd May 2004. Isn't this a beauty?
It has to be one of the most impressive dolmens I've seen - and I've been in a few in my time!
There is a long creep passageway (5m long by 1m high) leading to a central chamber (3m by 2,5).
The capstone is about 5m by 2,5m and 75cm thick.
