Log Text: This group of dolmens is a bit of an adventure. It seems rarely visited but the surroundings are great. You will pass the first dolmens right beside a iron gate that was locked but allows pedestrian access when I was there in June 2018. Continue to the beautiful but fallen menhir and behind the menhir is the access to most of the dolmens. The Megalithic Portal app on my phone came in very handy since I had a mobil wifi.

Anta de Pendilhe
Date Added: 2nd Jun 2018
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: Portugal (Viseu)
Visited: Would like to visit
Anta de Pendilhe submitted by Alta-Falisa on 30th Mar 2015. I confess that the photo by João Carvalho, July 2005, is far superior to my modest contribution.
While there myself (March 2015), I met a shepherd. It was very heart-warming to realise how pleased he was to see a foreigner, speaking some kind of broken Portuguese, showing so much interest for a monument along which he passes every day.

Log Text: Usually these fusion sites do not work for but this one was an exception. The location majesty of the Dolmen and the church in ruins synergies well as a site. Perhaps the presence of teh church wall which substitutes for the berm of the original mound helps the ambiance of the site.
Anta da Arca
Date Added: 13th Jun 2018
Site Type: Burial Chamber or Dolmen
Country: Portugal (Viseu)
Visited: Would like to visit
Anta da Arca submitted by Alta-Falisa on 28th Mar 2015. Strangely enough, this remarkable dolmen is not signposted anywhere. On the site, a board laconicaly says "Anta". However, even reduced to its few surviving components : a capstone, three uprights and a few smaller stones, Anta de Arca (the name of the nearby village) is one of the most elegant in Northern Portugal. Photo : March 2015.
