The Dolmen is at an altitude of 328m, crowning a hill located at kilometre 4.1 of the forest track that goes from the C-61 in the Corredor Sanctuary. It is a megalithic construction of 7 vertically nailed slabs on top of which is the cover stone. This structure has never been scientifically excavated or documented, leaving some uncertainties about its original origin, shape, and location.
