David G. Allan follows Fairy Tale Road in Germany.
Or you could do what I did, accompanied by my wife, Kate, and our 2 1/2-year-old daughter, Alice: drive the Fairy Tale Road in Germany, an official but unmarked route designed by local tourism officials to promote sites, some authentic, some imaginary. The 350-plus-mile route between Frankfurt and Bremen snakes past locations that include the actual homes of the Grimms and the fantasy ones of ;Little Red Riding Hood', 'Sleeping Beauty', and 'Hansel and Gretel', along with a mix of foreboding forests, striking towers and even some genuine castles. – from “On the Trail of Hansel and Gretel in Germany,” by David G.
