Roadbook
From Bredelar Monastery, head towards Padberg, go up the Orthelle to the left behind the railway. Then keep right towards Beringhofen. At the intersection, do not go straight on towards Beringhofen, but take the path to the left next to it and follow the sign "Mining traces" or the path "P 1". At the height of the "Grube Reinhard" rest area, cross the Diemel southward on the pedestrian bridge. After passing the rest area, continue straight on the "Mining traces" path and ascend slightly to reach the western exit of Giershagen. At the junction "Zum Eckefeld", turn left. Then turn right "Behind the Hagen" and immediately right again onto Adorf Road (district road). Here, hiking trail X 16 follows along the district road until it turns left into "Auf dem Webbel" street. Follow hiking trail X 16 straight ahead. It later turns right and crosses the district road. The path here is called "Auf dem Martenberg" and is also marked as "Diemelsteig". Behind the farmstead, turn left. Go straight ahead to Adorf, even if the Diemelsteig temporarily turns right.
At the playground, follow the footpath that slopes down diagonally to Arolser Street (main road). Walk on this road up to a sharp right turn. There, turn left onto "Kattwinkel" street and follow hiking trail X 1 (Sternweg), which is also signed as Diemelsteig, towards Wirmighausen. After some time, hiking trail X 1 leaves the main route of Diemelsteig to the left and leads to the village of Wirmighausen. There, continue to follow X 1, which is also labeled "W 1". This hiking trail turns left shortly after Wirmighausen and is then marked as X 1 or W 1 up to Flechtdorf.
