UNESCO Global Geoparks: De Hondsrug UNESCO Global Geopark (2015) (www.unesco.org/new/en/natural-sciences/environment/earth-sciences/unesco-global-geoparks/list-of-unesco-global-geoparks/netherlands/hondsrug)

Beschreibung

De Hondsrug area is a geological unique complex of linear till ridges of about 60 km in length, and a unique Ice Age landscape. The so-called “hunebed builders” built their burial monuments on these ridges and laid out the first routes across them (www.megalithicroutes.eu/en/members/geopark-de-hondsrug).
The Hondsrug Geopark is operational under the De Hondsrug UNESCO Global Geopark Foundation, thanks to the province of Drenthe and the local municipalities.
