I can't remember where I read about this...
maybe I googled "fun things to do in New Jersey" or maybe I saw it on Instagram...
all I can say is I love finding things like this on the internet.
I find the most amazing things to do and add them to my Bucket List.
The Troll Trek is new to us, it is like a scavenger hunt but so much better.
The website is here and contains all of the addresses you need to be able to see all of the tolls.
18 in total we found and saw 9 and had a blast doing it.
Wrong turns, deserted roads, they were not all easy to find but we did well.
They each have a name, they are all handmade by a different creator using all recycled materials.
So off we go...introducing the Trolls, in the order we found them.
Edward & his Trollmate
Weft
Gracie the Gardener
Retlaw
Bucket Head Bobby
Pipsqueak
With a total of 18 we plan on going again and finding the 9 we did not get to see.
It was a full day, breakfast at Cracker Barrel and the rest of the day finding the Trolls.
All 18 Trolls are in Burlington County,
you have to travel by car, from display to display, they are not within walking distance.
In fact, there was very little walking involved...
most were located in very beautiful parks, schools, a public library and very nice areas of the county.
If you have the chance, do it...it was so much fun!!

Hello,
Looks like a fun adventure finding the trolls.
I love the Big Rusty! Take care, have a happy day and a great week ahead!
This looks like a lot of fun. Great idea. Love them too. Such work and pride went into them!
You two always find fun things to do!
Wow!-- there are so many of them--- and all so different, Fun way to spend the day! You look so happy and pretty!
Such fun! Every one of those trolls are a lot of work.

I'm so pleased you shared these.
The trolls are all so different and all so amazing.
All the best Jan

Those are very cool! What a fun thing to do -- and so creative for the artists!
Debbie - this is the sort of thing that my husband and I would also enjoy! Is it a "permanent" exhibit? It would seem, with the size of some of them (Big Rusty) that you would want it to be permanent! Looking forward to seeing the other 9! So whimsical!
What are the odds that yours is the second blog that I read this week about trolls. My friend Dino did a blog about their local trolls yesterday as well!
Oh my gosh I would love to do that -- hang on we'll be right there. (Yeah, right -- if only I had a magic carpet). That really would be the sort of thing we'd love though-- Bill loves driving backroads, and I love riding along, especially *knowing* I'd find photo-ops! (I always do when we go on a drive, but how fun to know what your goal was.) The trolls are fun, so creative. Gertie the Gardener was my favorite if I had to pick one. Look forward to seeing the next nine.
oops, Gracie, I meant Gracie.
You just never know what is in your area that you haven't seen yet, I bet it was fun finding all of these, and nice you have more to check out another time. So creative and wow that last one is pretty impressive with how big it is!
These are great! I’ve seen a big one in the Arboretum in Harrisonburg. Would love to see more.
Adorable!
I checked out the website and if were planning to be in NJ in the near future, this would be a fun adventure for us as well. According to the link you provided some of the trolls may relocate after April 25.
