Great Wall Camping

Take your favorite bottle of liquor and together with some good friends go and enjoy one of the best traveling experiences of your life. Camping overnight at the Great Wall, you can look up at a sky full of glittering stars. This nighttime Great Wall makes one feel like being in a cradle, its ancient body kindly embracing us. This place has seen the blood and tears of war, and also a thousand years of solitude. Perhaps like us, you are nothing but an adventurous, youthful vigor. Perhaps like us, you love to gaze at the shooting stars and tell stories till sunrise. In the morning you wake to another beautiful clear day, footprints and the echoes of laughter are the only things left behind.

This Great Wall camping trip is amazing combination between Wild & restored Great wall, mountains, valleys and small springs. If you can hike 10km with a 10kg back pack than this camping trip is no problem for you.

This great wall curls on a mountain ridge and trough forest and gives you a bit the feeling of discovering ancient ruins in big forest. And the reality is not far off. Walking on this lush green path you will see the Great wall winding on mountain ranges as far as the eye can reach (and this way you ll realize that the tale that you can see the great wall from space is just a fairy tale). On this camping trip we will have enough time to relax and enjoy the view. We will pitch our tent just in partly renovated watchtower with a stunning view over the valley.

the second day we'll hike down the mountain into a beautiful valley. We do some stone hopping alongside a shallow river out the valley where out driver will pick us up and drive us back to Beijing.
