  • Budget
  
 Tour Itinerary : 4 Days Hiking tour of tour of Beijing 
 Departure : Daily
 Tour Summary : There are a number of Great Wall sections in Beijing that you can tour. The most famous one is Badaling Great Wall. But there are more challenging stretches of this historical and architectural marvel within an easy day-trip from Beijing city limits. Simatai Great Wall is not for everyone. The 19 km (12 mi) section is very steep, with a few slopes built at a 70-degree incline but worth the visit as you will see the Wall in its natural state, whereas the heavily-visited Badaling and Mutianyu sections which are well restored they could have been built yesterday - Gubeikou and Jinshanling are other sections which are very original.
