Nederland - Oisterwijk, Groot Kolkven
During our second visit to the Oisterwijk forests and fens (Oisterwijkse bossen en vennen) - again on a grey, gloomy day - we made a walk along the so-called Kolkvenroute (about 3.5 km's). This nature reserve is one of the Netherlands’ most unique nature reserves with 80 fens in a stunning green expanse.
Unlike many other fens, the formation of Kolkven is not created by the action of wind, but by melting water of a former river. Kolkven (main image) is a lot deeper than the others, which makes it suitable for fishing. The fen is rented by a local angling club.
On our route we passed three smaller fens, including the Brandven (PiP’s). This fen (“Fire Fen”) got its name because in the past its water was used as firewater.
Nowadays most of the nature reserve is owned and managed by Natuurmonumenten, a Dutch society for protecting nature reserves.

Ces étangs me font penser aux Dombes dans la région de Bourg-en-Bresse dans le département de l'AIN (FR) ! Beaucoup de similitudes notamment la pêche et le paysage.
Voici un extrait pris sur wikipédia : Les étangs, très nombreux (plus de mille), sont d'origine humaine. Ils ont été creusés - principalement par les moines, en mettant à profit les dépôts d'argile morainiques. En particulier, leur profil est maîtrisé et déterminé par le type de pêche ; à la différence des étangs du Forez, au fond plat, les étangs de la Dombes présentent une très légère pente, permettant à l'eau de s'écouler lentement et régulièrement vers l'émissaire (dénommé « thou ») lors de leur vidange au printemps tous les 4-5 ans à l'occasion de la pêche, avant d'être laissés à sec en général un été, pour être cultivés en avoine ou en maïs. Ils permettent une pisciculture importante de carpes depuis longtemps2, et alimentait les populations, en particulier de Lyon lors des nombreux "jours maigres". L'alternance assec-évolage est une particularité culturelle et culturale locale, où culture céréalière et élevage du poisson sont intimement associés.
La grenouille de la Dombes est une spécialité culinaire locale
Bonne semaine Jaap !
