Allée couverte du Hino

The Allée couverte du Hino (also called Dolmen Le Hino or Hino Allée couverte ) is located north of the hamlet of Le Hino, 3.5 km northeast of Ploërmel in the Morbihan department in Brittany in France .

The approximately 12.0 m long west-east oriented gallery grave made of pudding stone (a slate rock ) is hidden in the vegetation of an embankment. Eighteen bearing stones and five cap stones have been preserved. A chamber shape and a remnant of a hill are not recognizable.

Nearby are the Allée couverte of La Ville-Bouquet (in Ploërmel) and the Allée couverte of Haut-Bézon to the southwest and the Dolmen La Ville au Voyer to the southeast of the city.
