Can you find the trolls?

Giant trolls built from scrap wood are hiding in woods, dunes and parks all over Denmark. Here is the map, so you know where to look.

Thomas Dambo's trolls are built from old wood that would otherwise have been thrown away — and they are big. Some hide in the forest, others sit in a dune or look out over a fjord. They stand out in the open, and they are free to visit.

How to go troll hunting

  1. The trolls are outdoors, so check the weather and wear boots — the last stretch is often forest or sand.
  2. Bring a packed lunch. Most trolls have room around them, and that is half the trip.
  3. Look for the small things: the trolls often hold something, and some keep a story or a rhyme.
