    The Eschbachtal offers a good opportunity to drive with a very low gradient and often with little traffic from Unterburg (Solingen district) via Preyersmühle to the Eschbachtalsperre near Mebusmühle (both Remscheid district). The Eschbach flows into the Wupper in Unterburg. The asphalt is not always perfect, but it is easy to drive.
    In the section Preyersmühle to Mebusmühle, the Remscheid outdoor pool is beautifully located in the valley.

    Nice and quiet and almost flat. Only in the end it goes to the 6-7%. Clear recommendation.

    ---------- Tips ----------
    - Pay attention to slight bumps and rough spots
    (middle lane downhill, among others)
    on the road surface. [L409]
    - driving as far to the right as possible uphill makes everything optimal
    - sprints are hardly suitable... so better not here


    --------- Otherwise ----------
    Kiss on this route! I drove up it in May 2023 with my TRIBAN RC500 (vmax ~24kmph).
    After visiting a bakery, I finally drove back down the same route.
    My Insta360 filmed it.
    The descent was at vmax ~50kmph
    From my perception, the traffic density is really low. Very heavy!
