Reactivation studies in 1908 negated an economic viability, which is why here in particular far pre-industrial techniques are illustrative.

The very crisp climb from Edersee up to Waldeck can be handled by a cable car ride incl. bicycle transport. The two further climbs in Bad Wildungen and in front of the dam (each approx. 500m) are to be overcome. If you have enough condition, you can cycle back from Fritzlar to Bad Wildungen instead of by train (+13km).
