Mutianyu Great Wall Hike

Route Introduction

  • Mutianyu Great Wall in Huairou District, Beijing, is one of the best-preserved and most visitor-friendly sections of the Ming wall.
  • From the main entrance, walk the wall toward Big Corner Tower — about 8 km of smooth pavement, easily done as an out-and-back.
  • Forests cloak the mountains on both sides, and in autumn red leaves frame the wall beautifully; cable cars and a toboggan run are also available.
  • Low intensity, perfect for families and first-time visitors to the Great Wall.
