Themed after the Scandinavian heritage of the town, the troll park is a beautiful park to walk around, have a picnic, and learn a little bit about the Scandinavian history of Viking. Throughout the park, you can find various statues and images of trolls on top of other Scandinavian items, such as a Viking ship and Scandinavian plants.

Infographics are located throughout the park, detailing information about some of the park’s attractions and locations that were important to the Scandinavian settlers of the town. This makes the park great for any history buffs or anyone looking to catch a glimpse of early Scandinavian and Canadian history.

So, pack a lunch and your camera, and visit Troll Park.
