Icelandic Réttir
In september gaan de boeren te paard op zoek om ze te vinden en terug naar huis te brengen. Zodra de schapen terug zijn, worden ze samengebracht in schaapskooien (of Réttir ringen). De boeren komen met familie en vrienden naar de Réttir om te helpen met het sorteren van de schapen, zodat elk schaap teruggaat naar hun eigen boerderij.
Icelandic Réttir
One of Iceland's oldest cultural traditions is the annual sheep round in September, or the Réttir. Icelandic sheep are released into the mountains in the summer.
In September, the farmers go on horseback to find them and bring them back home. Once the sheep are back, they are brought together in sheepfolds (or Réttir rings). The farmers come to the Réttir with family and friends to help sort the sheep so that each sheep goes back to their own farm.
