The Yanqing Great Wall is one of our favourites for a good rugged hike, and we had the hills all to ourselves on the slightly chilly day we visited. Click through to see photos of hills, hikers, and the wild Great Wall!

We drove out into Yanqing District to visit an unrestored section of Great Wall that we call the Switchback. We got good photos on a nice clear day – click through to take a look!

On this hike we drove way out into Miyun District to climb up on to Dragon Cloud Mountain and to cross the frozen White River. Click through to see photos!
