Itinerary

You will be picked up in the early morning from your hotel around 7 AM – 7:30 AM, and then drive about 2.5 hours to the start point of hiking activities – the foot of the Great Wall at Jiankou. Jiankou is near Badaohe Village, northwest Huairou County, a suburb of Beijing. It is one of the most challenging sections of the Great Wall, as it is completely wild Great Wall. There you can see splendid mountains and untouched ancient history. This hike lasts about 5 hours to complete about 10 km (about 6 miles). You will have a lunch break at a local restaurant at the Great Wall. After lunch, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Beijing.

• Walk through a village and hike up to the Great Wall on a mountain path.
