Tips

From the forest road Gl. Grønlandsvej takes a path up to the left to Torneløkke round dolmen. The round dolmen is from the Peasant Stone Age and is approx. 5,000 years old. It is majestically situated on its hill surrounded by beech trees and is definitely worth a visit.

The mound is about 13 meters in diameter. It has been surrounded by a ring of smaller stones and has five supporting stones and a large high-backed deck. In the entrance there are on each side two more stones. The chamber itself is 2x1 meters long.

On the inside of the dolmen northwestern supporting stone are six bowl signs - a primitive form of petroglyph that is thought to be a symbol of fertility. Several wheel marks have also been found on the inside of the support stones in the dolmen. They're a little hard to see, but try for yourself!
