Middle Switchback Great Wall, 2015/06/07
Photos from a short hike along a rough but pretty line of Great Wall in Beijing’s northwest.
Our Middle Switchback Great Wall hike follows a section of rough but pretty Great Wall in the hills west of Badaling. It’s quite a contrast to the touristed section of Great Wall at Badaling - here it’s all unrestored, and seldom-visited!
We hike up a forested valley to find the Great Wall and then follow it up and down steep ridgelines, with great views the whole way.
