Troll Stroll is a short, moderate mountain biking route in Michigan, set within Local Forest on county land. The climb is flat for the most part, with a total of 55 feet gained and lost over the course of the 1.4-mile out-and-back. The high point sits at 841 feet, and the steepest stretch comes at about 0.29 miles in, with a grade of roughly 2 percent. The trail is close to other routes, so it works well as a quick addition to a longer outing in the area. For comfortable riding, late spring through early fall is the best window. Typical averages from the nearby Gladwin weather station show June highs around 78°F and September highs near 73°F, while winter brings highs in the 20s and several snow days a month from December through February. Skunk Valley lies just 0.1 mile away, with Tilt, Rick's Revenge and Snidley Whiplash each about 0.2 mile off.
