Great Wall of China Trek

Stretching 6,000 km in a snaking line across China, the Great Wall was begun in the 5th Century BC.  As it snakes across the mountains it conjures up a sense of history which is difficult to grasp until you have had the opportunity to experience it.

This trek is very varied, as you trek through woodland and terraced farmland, and follow the contours of the beautiful hills and mountains in remote areas north of Beijing. You walk on old sections of the Great Wall, as well as restored sections with smooth flagstones and lots of steps!

This challenge is physically demanding and offers fabulous scenery and a fascinating insight into a rich culture and history.
