    Nordic walking

    Sheep do not graze on the dyke because it looks nice, but they perform irreplaceable tasks for coastal protection. On the one hand they keep the turf short with their deep bite - on the other hand they scuttle the ground with their small hooves. That's why we talk about the golden step."

    Everywhere along the dike you can find flocks of sheep grazing peacefully and keeping the grass short.

    And every now and then you have to slalom because the sheep 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 🐑 have left something behind. 🙈
