Itinerary

Day 1: Full-day Group Hiking at Jinshanling Great Wall of China connected with Camping on the Great Wall at Night

Stop At: Jinshanling Great Wall, Chengde Shi, Luanping County 068250 China
The Great Wall at Jinshanling is one of the best-preserved parts of the Great Wall with many original features. The pictures of this section often show in China's official images of the Great Wall.
Jinshanling is a remote and relatively isolated section of the Great Wall. You can find many poems and tablet writings on the Wall left when Qi Jiguang directed the rebuilding of this section of the Great Wall 500 years ago. Meticulous detail is evident in the construction of the Wall. The uneven steps meant to slow down advancing troops should they make it onto the Wall. The narrowing curves and paths limit the invaders' movement, making them vulnerable to the defending army. You will enjoy the history with 3.5 hours of walking.
After lunch, our camping manager will transfer you to Gubeikou, an older and the oldest section of the Great Wall near Beijing. Here you will have the chance to walk to this part of the Wall to watch the splendid sunset.

Duration: 4 hours

Stop At: The Great Wall of Gubeikou, Gubeikou Town, Beijing 101508 China
Gubeikou Great Wall occupies a strategically important location, which is difficult to access. Situated between Shanhaiguan Pass and Juyongguan Pass, and about 62 miles to Beijing, the bastion is protecting the northern gateway to the capital. This part of the Wall is precisely the battlefield between the Chinese resistance army and invading Japanese troops in 1931.
You will see the splendid sunset here (weather permitting) and take the photos that only a sunset walk can make possible.

Duration: 12 hours

Meals included:
• Dinner: Gourmet dinner made by our local support family who will assist you with overnight camping.
• Breakfast: Chinese continental breakfast such as pancake.
Accommodation included: Overnight on the Great Wall by camping inside old watchtowers of over 600 years ago with quietness and stars and moon.

Day 2: Watch the Magnificent Sunrise from the Great Wall of China and Return to Beijing in the morning

Stop At: The Great Wall of Gubeikou, Gubeikou Town, Beijing 101508 China
Waking up at about 5:30 am in the summer, or 6:30 am in the winter, you will meet the magnificent sunrise from the Great Wall. While you are camping overnight inside a historic watchtower where ancient general used to stay, you will have the unique chance to welcome the beautiful sunrise from the Great Wall! The views are so great that you will never forget them.

After having continental breakfast, you will be transferred to Gubeikou Station to take the bullet train at 10 am to go back to Beijing. You'll arrive at 12:03 pm at Beijing North Station at Zhongzhimen. You may take a subway, bus or taxi to go back to your hotel.

    We had to book our trip with them last minute and they were awesome! We had a group of 20 young adults and everyone had an amazing time. The hike area was so beautiful and we got to hike for about 3 hours. They picked us up from your hotel, drove us to the wall, did the hike, provided dinner and breakfast, provided camping gear (which we didn’t have the pack with us- we camped near a village, so we pick up our gear there and carried it the 100 meters to the wall), camped on the wall, watched the sunrise and then they drove us back. They gave us a great student discount and our guide spoke English and was funny - Aaron is the best :) Seriously we could not be more pleased with how this experience turned out!
