I'm no expert about this, but I have been planning my own trip there lately and found this info at http://www.germany-tourism.de<BR>(a site that has a ton of information about traveling in Germany, btw)<BR><BR>The History of the Scenic Routings<BR>The first "Vacation Route" was established in 1927 - the German Alpine Road. Designed to attract individual travelers, most, however, were founded after 1949 in the original states of the newly born German Federal Republic. <BR><BR>In 1950, "The Romantic Road" was first advertised overseas, and to this day, it remains the most famous of Germany's Scenic Routings. <BR><BR>Also the German Fairy-Tale Route and the Castle Route are reknown worldwide. A major advantage of these Scenic Routings is how they enable travelers to get acquainted with day-to-day life in Germany. <BR><BR>
