Itinerary
Day 1: Light Great Wall Hiking in the Most Quiet Part of the Great Wall and Camp in a Watchtower on the Great Wall at Night
Stop At: Great Wall at Huanghuacheng, 60 km (37 miles) N of Beijing, Beijing 102209 China
Going to the Huanghuacheng Great Wall will be an unforgettable experience. The lake shapes like a curved moon, breaking this section of the Great Wall into three segments naturally. The Wall looks like a vast dragon, ready to fly into the blue sky.
The highest point of the Wall is a broken watchtower, and from there, you will have a complete panoramic view of the whole valley. From this summit, the Wall dives steeply downwards into the valley. You will meet “ZhenNu Pass” in the middle of the hike. The Pass means “Defeat to Invaders,” a warning to potential attackers in ancient times.
You will arrive in this beautiful and quiet Great Wall around 1 pm. Your local guide will hike with you for 2 hours from the inner mountain to the waterfront where you can see the lake from the Great Wall.
