The Vildische-Grund tour starts in Medebach and initially leads in a south-easterly direction along the L858, similar to the Medebach circuit. From there, the route continues in the direction of Berge. In the town center, follow the M6 to Dreislar. Dreislar's history is characterized by barite mining. The local museum offers visitors immersive insights into mining and geology using acoustic, visual and lighting elements. The route then crosses the Orketal valley, whose scenic charms invite contemplation. From Medelon, the M6 briefly leaves the L617 to the Orketal parking lot; the M6 is then resumed via a forest path. The tour continues through the "Vildische Grund" and reaches the Winterberg district of Elkeringhausen. Near Küstelberg, you pass the source of the Orke, a prominent geographical point. The route follows the M6 until after Oberschledorn; a short passage on the L854 replaces the turn-off into the Aartal. Finally, the M4 takes you back to the starting point in Medebach. There are various places to stop for refreshments along this circular tour.
