Jinshanling Great Wall is a very beautiful and only partly restored section of the Great Wall. Then hike from Jinshanling Great Wall to the west section of Simatai Great wall. Simatai Great wall is largely in its original state, as it has not undergone much renovation like other sections near Beijing. The hike is about 12 KM and takes about 4-5 hours. After lunch, you will be transferred back to your downtown hotel in Beijing.
Notice: Because Simatai Great Wall has been closed since June 17,2010, for this Jinshanling-Simatai Great Wall hike, you will turn round at the west section of Simatai back to Jinshanling.
