Dolmen del Puig ses Forques

The polygonal, approximately 1.7 × 2.0 m measuring dolmen , whose access area and capstone are missing, consists of seven (out of eight) bearing stones of different heights today, because they were cut off. The missing eighth bearing stone was probably, like the northern stone, which has now overturned, a little angled and with it formed part of the former access structure.

To the north of the dolmen there is a reddish menhir that has been erected again, and is very rugged .
