there are two paths, one path leading to the right way, and the other path leading to the wrong way. There are twins at the path, u dont kno which is the right path nor the wrong path, so in order to get to the right path, u gotta ask the twin a question. one of the twins always lies no matter wot, and the other always says the truth no matter wot. You can only ask one question, wot question would u ask to get u onto the right path? thats one question to both of them

One possible question :
Would the other twin say that this path is the right path?
Since the question "uses" both twins, the answer has to be a lie (truth*lies = lies and lies * truth = lies  )
So if the answer is yes, take the other path, if the answer is no take this path

If the path on the right is wrong, the one that is left must be right.

If you try using the search feature for "fork in the road", you'll find several variants on this riddle already out there.
You'll also miss a couple more variants also already on the boards somewhere. "gibberland" should find a particularly nice/nasty one
