Houten Huizen, Stenen Forten (Utrecht)
Wist je dat er binnen een kring van 1 kilometer rond een waterliniefort alleen houten huizen gebouwd mochten worden? Dit werd gedaan zodat de huizen snel afgebrand konden worden bij oorlogsdreiging en het schootsveld weer vrij was voor de soldaten. De wet die hierbij hoort, de zogenaamde Kringenwet, was tot 1963 van kracht. Het oosten van Utrecht is daardoor prachtig groen gebleven. Alle bijzondere verhalen van het waterlinieverleden van Utrecht kom je te weten tijdens deze route. Bijvoorbeeld over de dubbele fortenkring aan de oostkant van de Domstad, omdat dit gebied niet onder water gezet kon worden, of over de plofduiker, een sluis met dynamiet om de watertoevoer naar de stad te stoppen.

About the Calorie Calculator
Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.
When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.
Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
