On this hike we will visit a remote stretch of the Great Wall that was completed around 1580 AD, during the reign of Emperor Wan Li. After a good long (some say tough) climb up a hillside trail we’ll follow the Great Wall along a ridge, enjoying great views the whole way. There is plenty of Great Wall in this area, and on a clear day it is extremely picturesque.

Note: tough climb at the start of the hike. While rated a 3+, this hike is sort of a tough 3+ because of the long climb at the beginning. We go up about 500m over 2km of trail, which is a climb worthy of a Level 4 hike.

Early start! We're leaving extra early to avoid the worst of the Labour Day holiday traffic. We may still get stuck in a traffic jam at some point. Bring a book to read, just in case, and we'd advise that you don't make any fixed plans for the evening.

Cost: 420 RMB (380 RMB for members)
