Rollin' Out the Trolls

After months of anticipation, the trolls have officially arrived in the Adirondacks - and they look pretty awesome...

Visitors can now experience TROLLS: Save the Humans at The Wild Center, where six giant troll sculptures created by world-renowned artist Thomas Dambo are hidden throughout the museum's forest trails.

These aren’t your typical statues. The Wild Center says that each Troll is built from reclaimed materials and placed in the natural landscape, blending art, storytelling, and environmental awareness.

Exhibit Runs Through Halloween

Each of the six Trolls has its own personality. Basse Buller paints with mud, Ibbi Pip spreads hope through birdhouses, and Kamma Can turns trash into treasure. Others, like Ronja Redeye, Rosa Sunfinger, and Sofus Lotus, focus on leadership, plant life, and the quiet sounds of nature.

The exhibit runs through October 31st, and is included with your paid admission to the Wild Center.

If you're planning a visit this summer, organizers recommend purchasing tickets in advance to make the experience as smooth as possible.
