Wonderful day trip far from crowds!

This is the perfect day trip if you are looking at hiking a section of the wall far from the massive crowds of tourists. It’s 2 hour drive from the city (with no traffic) but very worth it. Pick up was smooth and Jacky was the best and the minivan comfortable. I really loved the unguided aspect of it so you can really go at your own rhythm. Just one piece of advice if it’s your first time hiking the wall: you really need to be fit as there are a LOT of VERY steep climbing and stairs as you walk 22 stations. On the way down there are also a lot of stairs. I à an experienced and regular hiker and my legs took quite a stroll on that day lol The sceneries are just magnificent. One of my best hiking day ever.

Glad we paid to go further afield to Jinshangling as it wasn't busy. Enjoyed going along the wall at own pace rather than feeling rushed due to the crowds. Breathtaking scenery, and a must if visiting Beijing. Jackie our driver, and English speaking was informative and took great care of the group we were in as we all had different abilities. The minibus was clean and comfortable, I even managed 40 winks along the way. We contemplated paying to hire a taxi for the day but for us this was the better option. Only disappointment was the cable car wasn't operating that day.
Great experience

This is a really great part of the wall. Not many people, not even on a public holiday. Some stairs are very very steep so it is a workout! There’s no info or tour included, only the transport basically. Traffic gets crazy so do not make any early reservations for the evening.

It was a great experience with Jackie and Mr.Soon as driver. We were 5 people, they did a bigger group with another different-sizes groups, in total we were 10 kindly person. The trip was almost 3 hours, but the great wall was almost only for us. We had the best photos we could have taken, and they were very nice and puntual! Thank you, guys!!!
Amazing Tour, really loved it!

It was an amazing tour! That side of the Great Wall was really beautiful and there are very few people which makes it much more enjoyable and walkable! Be prepares to walk and climb quite a lot, bit in the end the landscapes are just breath-taking!
