Description by the author

Parking: parking 1 or 2 of the Schorre (signposted)

Seven giant trolls – some busy, others blowing out the hard work – have been living in De Schorre since 2019, off the beaten track and hidden in nature. One of the giants carves figures from a totem pole, while one of his big friends fetches water and another makes a necklace. Yet another is busy collecting stones and a pair of trolls rest on the grass, searching for mysterious cloud figures in the sky.
