Paseo delle pecore

Description

Con l'arrivo di greggi di pecore, nel XVIII e XIX secolo si verificarono grandi cambiamenti nel paesaggio dell'Utrechtse Heuvelrug. Le pecore pascolavano le terre incolte comuni. Alla fine, questo portò a vaste e aperte brughiere e sabbie mobili, e praticamente tutta la foresta originale dell'Heuvelrug era scomparsa. Sull'Heuvelrug si sviluppò un modello di strade per le pecore, i percorsi che portavano le pecore dalla stalla alla brughiera. Poiché le pecore dovevano anche bere lungo il cammino, furono scavati avvallamenti in luoghi dove l'acqua sotterranea era facilmente accessibile. Di notte, le pecore soggiornavano in ovili, a metà strada tra l'Heuvelrug e le fattorie situate attorno al Langbroekerwetering e al Kromme Rijn. Il gregge era composto da circa 150 a 200 pecore. Fornivano agli agricoltori lana, carne, latte e letame. Ancora oggi, le strade per le pecore riconoscibili a ovest di Doorn sono la Broekweg, la Stamerweg, la Woestduinlaan e la Drift.
