Curse

Right outside Droknars Forge is an ice cave full of these ugly level 24's. Sure, they probably wont drop you an item that will make you rich, but in the long run its worth it. How, you may ask?

Decent Money
Trolls drop many raven staffs. Expert Salvaging them can get you 8-15 or even more wood. You can also expert salvage other items to get steel and iron. Now, you may say "Yeah, but iron and wood only sells for 8-10g each, and you wont be getting alot of steel" Well, who said anything about selling all this? Now, the iron you can sell for 8-10g each, and whatever steel is worth. But the wood, keep it. Instead of selling 1,000 wood for 8k, wouldnt you rather turn it into something that will net you 16k?
With 1,000 wood, you will need 4k. Go to Sardlac Sanitarium (Southwest of Ascalon City). Exit into Old Ascalon and go a couple of steps north. Now, you should see someone called Artistan Daved [Materials]. Talk to him. For 5 wood and 20g, you can make 1 roll of parchment that you can sell for 80g.
With 1,000 wood and 4k, you can make 200 parchment. 200 x 80 = 16,000 Not bad cash at all.

The Experience
Trolls are very very easy to farm. While killing these baddies and getting your loot, you get 168exp every kill. So, if your trying to get high exp, you can get it here.

Power Leveling
Another decent way to get exp/money against these guys, power leveling. Power leveling is when you get a lower level person to come, and you kill the trolls and they get exp. Charge about 1k per level, and make sure they bring scrolls. This way, you get more exp then doing it solo, and you also get some wood/iron/steel.

The Route
Getting to the troll cave is very easy. Follow the path in the map below, and you will make it there fine.
