Start of the Balkantrasse at Lennep Station

From early 2009 to June 2010, the station was rebuilt. This created two outer platforms, which are connected by an underpass. In addition, the old station building was partially restored, and no longer needed tracks were rebuilt for the purpose of the Balkan route.

This 1994 "work of art" commemorates the railway junction Lennep. The train station Remscheid - Lennep was one of the most important railway junctions in the entire Bergisches Land

At 330 m above sea level, Lennep station is the highest in the area of the Rhein-Ruhr transport association (VRR). The S7 with a spacious multi-purpose compartment for taking bicycles can be used as a climbing aid at no additional cost either from Solingen Hbf (at 90 m) or from Wuppertal (at 160 m). Great launch pad for i.a. following tours
Balkantrasse West to Opladen
Balkan route east to Marienheide
Wupper down via Radevormwald to Wuppertal
via Eschbach or Morsbach to Wupper and down to Leverkusen
