Overview

Beyond the crowded sections, the Great Wall is wild and breathtaking. We hike the restored ramparts of Mutianyu, camp under stars on the unrestored Jinshanling stretch, and balance it with Beijing's Forbidden City, hutong life and a Peking duck masterclass.

Highlights

Sunrise on Jinshanling, a guided Forbidden City visit, hutong rickshaw tour with a local family lunch, and a traditional tea ceremony.
