Balkantrasse komplett

The excellent asphalt of the route can be traveled very well.

Balkan route is great! Perfect asphalt and even up to Burscheid completely without crossing roads! But even afterwards the crossings are harmless, if you look at the z. B. compares with the Vennbahn. Interrupted in Wermelskirchen, but this is a pretty place. If there was still an underground connection to the right side of the Rhine and you would not always have to wander through this city bustle in Leverkusen ... I'm still looking for it.

Already driven x times .... and always a pleasure ....

The route is super tarred and can be driven with a lot of flow.
A popular route is only on Sundays and public holidays from the late morning onwards.

Wide route with good asphalt. Not very busy on a sunny Sunday either. Nevertheless, a local politician wanted to discuss with me during the election campaign about consideration for the Balkan terrace 😳😂

Wide route with good pavement and little interference from crossings.

Slope not very steep. Easy to drive on both sides.

Wonderful way for the racing bike

A great railroad path, where there are still many relics of the railroad to be seen to the right and left of the path.

The Balkantrasse connects the beautiful Lennep district of Remscheid (you should definitely make the short detour to the old town) with Opladen. So the hills of the Bergisches Land with the beginning of the Lower Rhine plain.
It is perfectly paved and rolls just fine. Apart from the fact that you have to meander through Wermelskirchen, there are very few interruptions from crossing streets.
On nice weekends, however, there is a lot going on on the route, so that a brisk racing bike ride is hardly possible or will result in recklessness. However, if you are ready to take it easy on such days, you can still use the route.
There are a few places to stop for refreshments directly on the route.
At Bergisch Born, the Balkantrasse goes directly into the beginning (or the end?) Of the Wippertalbahn route, which leads via Hückeswagen and Wipper to Marienheide.

Wonderfully smooth asphalt ..... rolls to Wermelskirchen

The Balkan route from Lev-Opladen is always worth a drive. You can concentrate fully on the kick

The route invites you to make a route.
Slight uphill / downhill gradient - very comfortable to drive.

A dream for road cycling

I like to ride my bike here.

Such a good cycle route and lots of green 🤠

Enchantingly beautiful route downhill and uphill!

Uphill and downhill super beautiful route!

Here you can pull through well, otherwise you can get almost bored - because of the even incline and so on.

Well-developed bike path. Wide roadway and beautiful views to the left and right of the landscape.

Great bike path!
