Well all of these years later I come across this article of a guy archiving them. It's real hard to read (meaning impossible) because it's in dutch, but you can see a few more of these images here.

olifanten paadjes
I came across a (brief) article in Dwell about this guy that documents these paths in the Netherlands. I remember talking about these in Architecture School (at one time I actually thought I had the smarts for this degree). They are the natural paths that people make. A great example of these is on a college campus when it snows a bunch. Before the plows plow the side walks people start making patterns in the snow. The easiest or most natural way to get somewhere reveals itself. Such an interesting idea.
