In this enchanted forest, you wander from fairytale to fairytale, discovering a new story around every bend, from dwarves and princesses to enchanted swans, dancing elves, and the long-necked creature among the trees.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Around 30 Fairytales in the Living Fairytale Book<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Around 30 fairytale scenes are set up here: classics like Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin, Snow White, Hansel and Gretel, and The Frog Prince. Additionally, there are Andersen fairytales like &#8220;The Little Mermaid&#8221; and &#8220;The Little Match Girl,&#8221; as well as original creations such as the talking fairytale tree, the dwarf village, and the troll king. Many scenes move, speak, or surprise with details that will amaze even adults.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Fairytale Forest is part of Efteling Park, which is open 365 days a year; admission is valid for the entire park and depends on the day of your visit. Children under 4 are free. For food and drinks, there is a wide selection in the park, from snacks to full-service restaurants. Many attractions are wheelchair accessible, some with transfer assistance. Details can be found in the attraction filter on the website. Plan a full day or even a weekend for your journey from Germany. Parking costs \u20ac15.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Information about Efteling Fairytale Forest<\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Suitable
