    Attractive route along the former railway line. Bridges, tunnels and old train stations – this gives you the feeling that you are following in the footsteps of old railway lines. At the end of the 19th century, the railways were built on low-slope routes so that heavy railway wagons could also travel. Enjoy breathtaking views of nature here.

      Brand new: There is a bike bus on weekends, which starts in Opladen and goes to Marinenheide. From there you can then drive back the route.

        The route of the "Balkanexpress", completely decommissioned in 1991, on the edge of the Bergisches Land offers ideal conditions for a cycle path. The panoramic cycle path Balkantrasse was opened on the section from Burscheid via Wermelskirchen to Remscheid on 22 April 2012, which was sponsored by Förderverein Balkantrasse Leverkusen e. V. built connection to Opladen followed on 29 May 2014.
