Meet your friendly tour guide and driver at 7:30 a.m. in your hotel lobby and relax in a private vehicle for a 2.5-hour drive to the Gubeikou Great Wall while listening to the history from your tour guide.
The hike begins at the Gubeikou section of the Great Wall in Miyun County. Although designated as a park, this section of the Great Wall remains completely unrestored, featuring over 140 watchtowers, each varying in size and design. From this vantage point, you can observe how the Wall twists and winds along the steep mountain ranges.
You will hike approximately 10 km (6 miles) from Gubeikou to Jinshanling, with a pleasant detour to explore a charming nearby local village before re-entering the Wall near the Jinshanling section. This is a perfect spot for capturing stunning panoramic photos.
After completing the hike, enjoy an authentic lunch at a countryside local restaurant, with the cost of food and drinks included.
Your tour concludes with a transfer back to your Beijing hotel.
