Burial Chamber (Dolmen) in Cataluña

Dolmen of the end of the 3rd or beginning of the 2nd millennium BCE.

A (1 to 1.5 hour) easy walk (well indicated) will take you to two more dolmens and three menhirs, well described (in Catalan language) in an area of open forests of cork oaks, some fields and seasonal lakes (= estanys).
