This seven-day journey is composed for the
ultimate Great Wall enthusiast. This hike requires you to be in
good physical condition, so
please know where you stand. While
this hike is tough physically, you will gain a greater
understanding of the Great Wall and its original strategic
purpose, as well as a wonderful tour of Chinese culture and
nature.
On this tour, we will start from Old Dragon’s Head in Hebei
Province, which is the eastern starting point of the “Ten
thousand li Great Wall” and carry on to the Huangyaguan Pass in
Tianjin. Huangyaguan is a great section of the wall, as it is
designed to be a microcosm of the entire Great Wall of China, so
from this section you will learn an enormous amount about the
wall.
From there we will press on to Gubeikou, Jinshanling and Simatai.
This classic hike is the staple of Great Wall hiking, and the
dramatic twists and turns the wall takes on the mountainside
will make for a fitting end to your odyssey.
The total length of this hike is 60km/37 miles. Some parts of
the wall on our journey are greatly deteriorated, so prepare to
face some adversity and hardship on the way. But it will be
worth it, because your adventure will show you a wondrous China
that most never get the chance to see.

Free airport transfers!
*Bonus: Free Chinese royal foot massage at Beijing's #1
Massage & Health Center.
