Here the Balkan route starts in the direction of Lennep.

in Opladen is an ideal gateway to the Balkan route. With gentle gradients, you can move comfortably through nature. Again and again there are rest areas, in Remscheid also a beautiful old train station with recommended location, food and drink. A beer garden attracts in good weather and e-bike charging station is also available.

The Opladen railway town is still under construction, so it is not (yet?) the visual highlight of the route, but the beginning/end in the current Opladen district of the city of Leverkusen, which is already very industrial. The railway cycle path begins directly at the stop, which is equipped with ramps for bicycle-friendly use.

Tip for long route planning: einfach-bergisch-radeln.de/bergischer-panorama-radweg-2 In Bergisch Born, do not continue to the Lennep end point, but turn sharp right towards Hückeswagen, Wipperfürth, Marienheide. This is also an old railway line on which the Bergisches Panoramaradweg runs. It leads further to Olpe. From there it goes further into the heart of the Sauerland.
