Jiankou Great Wall Tour
There are tons of online trip reports on the incredible steepness of the Upward Flying Eagle Tower to Tianti (Sky Ladder) and Beijing Knot along Jiankou Great Wall. We are not advising anyone to scramble that section if you don’t have any climbing experience armed with special equipment though maybe you are an experienced travelers.Starting from Zhengbeilou Watchtower on Jiankou ( east of the Upward Flying Eagle Tower and Sky Ladder), walk eastwards along the rugged Wall and get to the restored Mutianyu Great Wall, a relatively easy walk with stunning views.
Currently, Jiankou Great Wall is still not officially open to the mass tourism due to its risky hike as well as the government’s policy to protect the “wild wall”. If you choose to walk from Zhengbeilou at Jiankou Great Wall to Mutianyu Great Wall, the risk involved would be less. But still you should apply for travel insurance for your coverage of injury or accident. See more travel tips for your Jiankou great wall hike below:
