Four huge menhirs on the slope of Mount Tountinna in the middle of the Arra Mountain Range. It is probably a Bronze Age burial place. It's exciting to see how the huge stones got up here.

There are some mysteries that surround the Graves of the Leinster Men, but the general consensus is that it is some form of a megalithic tomb. Whatever it may be, it's impressive to see and there are beautiful views to enjoy also.

Hiking

The Graves of the Leinstermen standing stones consist of four menhirs. They are located in County Tipperary, Ireland, above Lough Derg, between the villages of Ballina and Portroe, on the western slope of the 463-meter-high Tountinna, a mountain in the Arra Mountains. A narrow, steep road leads from Portroe to the standing stones.
