Area information



History


Trollhaugen was opened in 1950. It is one of the longest running snow sports areas in the midwest.[3] It was created by Lee Rogers and Walter G. Peterson in the fall of 1950. It began with one tow rope and three slopes. By 1956 Trollhaugen provided skiers with five tow ropes and six slopes. It also had a chalet to provide some hospitality.[4] Trollhaugen was sold in 1967 to Dr. Ray Rochford and Dr. Anne Rochford, both dentists from St. Paul, Minnesota. The tubing hill and chalet were added in 2004. Trollhaugen's Adventure Park, consisting of a 6-line zip line tour and 120 element aerial challenge course, was installed in the fall of 2012.
