Remarkable dolmen dating from 3000 BC, the most famous in the region, in a superb setting at Black Head.

The region's most famous dolmen dates back to 3000 BC, and the stone covering it seems strangely light... This Neolithic megalith, rather well preserved, represents a portal, made up of seven particularly imposing stone blocks, the top of which rises to almost two metres. The surrounding landscape is nothing short of fantastic.

Photo tip: the Poulnabrone dolmen lends itself particularly well to photography at sunset, when the light slips through the cracks in the stone blocks.

Le Dolmen de Pounalbrone se situe un peu au milieu de nulle part, il ne faut pas hésiter à quitter les routes nationales et s'enfoncer dans la campagne pour y parvenir. Mais le décor est vraiment magnifique ! On découvre le Buren dans toute sa splendeur ! L'entrée est gratuite et avec un peu de chance, vous serez accompagnés par de la musique traditionnelle.
Sur le chemin du parking au Dolmen, il y a de nombreux panneaux qui racontent l'histoire de la région
Dolmen Poulnabrone is located in Parc National du Burren, in a lunar and desert landscape.

Set in a stone field, where green grass grows where it offers the opportunity, the dolmen immediately attracts. It has the reputation of being one of the most famous dolmens and most visited country and goes back to 2500 bc.
