Balkan route is great! Perfect asphalt and even to Burscheid without crossing roads! 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.

The section was a gap for a long time. Since the summer of 2019 you can now drive directly from Opladen station to the Balkan route.
