On this hike we’ll head out to the border of Beijing Municipality and Hebei Province for a moderately difficult walk through peach orchards, up valleys, and along the Great Wall. We’ll have views of the distinctive peaks of nearby ‘Brush-rest’ Mountain as we walk, and we think this remote area is a great spot for a walk. The Great Wall out here is rough and seldom-visited—choose this hike if you're interested in a visit to a section of wall very different to what you've seen on postcards.

Weather note: if rain or thunder is forecast we might not be able to hike. We'd look at postponing the hike to the next day. If that doesn't work out we'd suggest that you switch to one of the hikes during the weekend.
