If you want to make a detour to the Eschbachtalsperre from the Balkan route, you should choose this section. The Eschbachtalsperre is the oldest drinking water dam in Germany. A tour is highly recommended. The path around the dam is very easy to drive on and has no inclines.

Shortly before the end of the tour at Melly's right on the Balkan route delicious
Eat or just have a drink.
Here the breaded schnitzel is still fried in the pan, the salad dressing is homemade and the currywurst is great. Poled Pork Burger or (goose leg fall only) the choice is yours
Even today the price/performance ratio is right. It is sooooo 😋 😋 😋 😋 😋
