Great adventure and the experience of a lifetime as not only did we hike the Great Wall, but we did it as a father and son trip. This was a good tough hike away from all the crowds, indeed we only met a handful of people all day.

Throughout my 10 day trip to China, this has to be THE highlight of all my tours. To summarise:
- The whole tour was well organised and professional. There are no sidetracking or swindling of any kind to get you to purchase anything. It was just purely a hiking tour. (It's a rarity among tours in China) And the lunch was local AND delicious too!...

My hike on the Great Wall was one of the things that I was most looking forward to doing on my recent trip to China and it was just as amazing as I hoped!

I highly recommend this hike (from Jiankou to Mutianyu). It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. We met the group at a subway stop in Beijing, hopped in a van, and rode to the start of the hike (an hour or so outside of Beijing). We ate lunch at the foot of the mountains before beginning the trek up to the wall. We hiked uphill fo...
Great 1 day hike Jun 11 2018
From Amy B
Had a fantastic time hiking with my partner and around 10 others at the Jiankou section of the wall yesterday. Both of us had been to Beijing before and done so-so tours of the great wall (expensive, limited time at the wall, busy sections and unwanted 'shoppertunities'!) and this tour ended being exactly what we both wanted:

Chloe and Fred facilitated an amazing day.

We had limited time in Beijing so decided to join an official hike. We signed up to the Jiankou to Mutianyu section.

We hardly saw anyone else except our own group and w...

If you want to see the Wall, this is the way to go. A...

Detailed Itinerary
From our meeting point at Lama Temple subway station (exit B), it takes us about 2 hours to reach the village where we have lunch. After lunch, we start hiking a steep dirt trail that leads to the Great Wall. It is a 500-meter ascent that takes us about 1 hour. Our efforts are rewarded when we stand on top of the Zhengbeilou Watchtower (991m) where some of the most spectacular pictures have been taken.
Jiankou to Mutianyu Great Wall hike
We walk east on the Wall to the highest point of Jiankou (1029 meters), allowing you to see the entire Mutianyu Great Wall plus most part of Jiankou as well. It’s a very enjoyable walk on top of the well preserved Great Wall where we pass the famous “Ox Horn section”.
Jiankou – Mutianyu Great Wall hike. The famous Ox Horn
After a good hour hiking on top of the Jiankou Great Wall, a tree full of prayer flags announces the start of the Mutianyu Great Wall. Here the Great Wall is restored. A short hike on the Mutianyu Great Wall leads us past 4 guard towers before we take start our 1 hour downhill hike through the valley. The trail ends at a picturesque village where our driver will be waiting for us. By 7 pm we should be back at our meeting point in Beijing.
Level 2: Medium-Strong
We give this hike a level 2 medium rating, as the trail is not too long but still most of the hike is uphill. If you have a normal physical condition you will enjoy this trip for sure.
