How difficult is walking the Great Wall of China?
Everyone dreams of experiencing a truly unique and unforgettable Great Wall of China. A multi-day walk is the best way to make that dream come true. These treks can be challenging at times, but the reward is breathtaking scenery that stirs the soul. Along the way, hikers discover not only the Wall’s awe-inspiring history but also the authentic cultural traditions and adventures found nowhere else.
Great Wall Walk is a signature brand of the Great Wall Adventure Club, founded in 2003. For over two decades, the Club has been sharing the wonder, awe, and excitement of the “Middle Kingdom” with travelers and explorers from around the world. It offers hikes from one to twelve days, often along remote and less-visited sections of the Wall. Some inclines are steep and the trails may wind over rugged stone with dramatic drop-offs on either side, but with average fitness and sturdy shoes, the hikes are accessible—even without someone to hold your hand or wave a fan.
Our walking and hiking tours immerse you in both the natural beauty and cultural heritage of the Great Wall of China. Over the past 24 years, the Great Wall Adventure Club has proudly served more than 82,400 individuals, including many distinguished groups worldwide. We remain fully committed to delivering quality, excellence, and outstanding service to ensure your journey in China is one of the most memorable experiences of your life.
