What to expect?
This nine-day adventure takes you beyond the tourist trail and deep into remote, rugged, and breathtakingly beautiful sections of the wall. From crumbling ancient watchtowers and wild, untouched paths to carefully restored fortifications, each step reveals the history, scale, and majesty of this extraordinary feat of engineering.
Starting in the bustling heart of Beijing, you'll travel through centuries of Chinese history, trekking across dramatic landscapes, peaceful rural villages, and awe-inspiring mountain ridges.
With challenging hikes, panoramic views, and immersive cultural experiences, including a visit to the Forbidden City and traditional guesthouse stays, this is more than just a trek; it’s a full cultural and physical adventure.
Whether you’re tracing the wall’s serpentine path through golden hillsides or exploring its weathered stones up close, this journey offers a powerful connection to China's past and a truly memorable experience for the soul.
This is an Open Challenge which means that you will be joined by fellow travellers who may be supporting other charities and making a difference to many.
