UNRESTORED GREAT WALL HIKE | Gubeikou Wild Wall China Vlog
CHINA TRAVEL GUIDE:
BEST VPN FOR CHINA:
This was an unforgettable day! It was my first time seeing the Great Wall of China and I got to start with an unrestored section, which I've been dying to see! The ridiculously fun people we spent the day with made the whole experience even better. This section of wall is called Gubeikou, more specifically Panlongshan, and we took a private van to get there for a total of 1000 RMB (which we then split between 6 people). I highly recommend this hike if you're up for some exercise and incredible views!

Which Section of the GREAT WALL OF CHINA Should You Visit? | Abandoned or Restored
Which Section of the Great Wall of China should you visit? This was probably the biggest question we had before travelling to China. Mutianyu? Badaling? Jinshanling? Or how about off the beaten path at the Great Wall Fresh Homestay? - This film aims to determine once and for all, which is the best section of the Great Wall to visit.
I'm trying something a little different with this film - it's longer and more documentary style. Let me know what you think in the comments!

Fear and Loathing in Beijing #7 - The Great Wall of China! (Jinshanling)
Fear and Loathing in Beijing #7 - The Great Wall of China!
Jinshanling Great Wall!
In this Episode, we went to the best spot to see the Great Wall of China!
There are a few wall parts around Beijing open for tourism. But most of them are just overrun with people.
The Jinshanling Great Wall is an exception mostly because of the distance to Beijing. Which btw also makes it a Day-Trip.
This is how you get to Jinshanling Great Wall:
You can take the public transport Busses to the Wall between April and November.
The Bus Station is located at WANGJING WEST (Line 13) Metro Station. Leave the Metro Station at Exit C (Dont worry its a bigger station and Exit C is kinda hidden so you have to walk a bit).
After you left the station at Exit C, take a look over your right shoulder to see a RED sign Tourist Bus to Jinshanling Great Wall.
The Bus Station looks a bit sketchy, but don't worry.
After the Red Sign keep walking around 20-50 Meters alongside the Bus station to get to the waiting area with a white sign saying: 金山岭长城旅游班车 only in Chinese.
The waiting area has long white metal bars under a roof to wait in Line - That's the right spot. There a few Busses which departure from that same point - so don't panic just ask every time.
The Bus departure at 8 am in the morning.
( Officially - BUT the last time we went there they told us the bus would depart at 8:30 which it did. But I would not bet on it to happen every time. So make sure to be there at 8 am and don't worry if you have to wait a bit. since there is only one Bus going there you don't want to miss it. )
The Bus Ticket is around 50RMB and can only be bought inside the Bus and in Cash. The ride to Jinshanling takes around 100 Min. and depending on the Traffic the bus will make a short stop at a Gas station.
The Bus back to Beijing departures at 3 pm and 4 pm.
( ! ! Here it's Important to ask the driver when u leave the Bus to make sure u don't miss the last Bus. ! ! )
The Bus back to Beijing will departure at the same place where you get off the Bus. The Ticket back is around 50RMB and can only be bought inside the Bus in Cash.
It will take you back to City. They just stopped at a metro station (Line 13) and somewhere close to Sanlitun - I don't have an exact location.
When You arrive at the parking space in Jinshanling you walk by the Tourist Information Center. I recommend using the shuttle, its only 10RMB and will take you to the entry of the Jinshanling Great Wall Park. You get the Tickets inside.
You can also walk up there in around 15-20 minutes (Like we did in the Video) but you should rather spend that time on the actual Wall.
You also can take a shuttle back to the Parking lot.
It's again 10RMB!
When you arrive at the Entry of the Park you have to buy the Park Ticket.
The Ticket is around 60RMB and 30RMB for Students.
Again I highly recommend taking the cable car to the Wall - in this case, there is no time walking up to the Wall!!
Cable Car roundtrip Ticket is around 30RMB.
The Great Wall is an uneasy Terrain with a lot of rocks, holes and extreme stairs a lot of stairs. So be careful and were good shoes.
You can buy water, snacks, and Ice before you enter the park and also inside every Tower of the wall but it is fucking expansive.
So make sure to buy enough Water and food upfront before you even get on the Bus.
That's it. I hope you have a great time there its absolutely worth it!!

Camping on the Great Wall of China 2018
Instead of going to the very crowded part of the Great Wall of China (Badaling), we went to a part in a rural town. We saw only one other group of people on our hike and we even camped overnight in a tent on the Great Wall. It was about a 4-hour bus journey to a family´s house that makes this possible. Then a 3-hour hike to where we slept. You may sleep at their home where they have 4 rooms, or sleep on the wall. The cost is the same. Don´t miss out on the delicious lunch there. The cost was very, very affordable. It was an amazing experience and we highly recommend organizing your trip to the Great Wall with the family from Great Wall Fresh. You won´t regret it!

One of the most beautiful sections of The Great Wall!
Jingshanling is one of the best places to see both some preserved and wild sections of the Great Wall. We picked a beautiful day to go and see some of the amazing defence systems put in place such as battlement walls, watchtowers and gun emplacements. Join us as we put on our hiking boots and scale up hundreds of stairs while sharing some fun - and sometimes not so fun - facts about the Wall. It’s all here in our latest episode of Outsider, our original travel video series dedicated to awesome hikes and nature experiences.

Beijing Great Wall layover - plan, tips, cost - 2019
Layovers could be boring or exciting adventures.
This is our experience in Beijing on 11 May’19. We had wonderful and incredible 5 hours seeing one of the new 7 Wonders of the World. We highly recommend it!
The good think of getting private driver/guide is that you don't book and pre-pay online! You can pay cash at the end.
Thanks to our private guide everything went smooth, calm and on time. Joe is really nice, friendly and knowledgeable person. His English is very good and easy to communicate to. Really, he's great! That’s how you can find him if you choose that option:

I hope you’ll find that helpful. Have a GREAT wallover ;)

NEAR DEATH STORYTIME ON THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA BEIJING (part 1)
Our Near death experience on the Great Wall of China. Clinging onto a rock on the Jiankou great wall with a steep drop below us. Chris injured, P in survival mode. Anxiety levels sky high, adrenaline pumping and all wondering how in the world did we get ourselves in such a predicament. Visiting the Great Wall of China Beijing, should be a joyous and momentous occasion for any visitor.
This could’ve been one of those tragic stories of a great wall of china hike. I mean who nearly dies on the great wall of china walking. Like really?? The trek up to the jiankou section and our intended journey to Mutianyu was not a walk in any way but instead a dangerous hike.
Trekking China is supposed to be fun right? However our experience on the great wall of china trekking was not fun. It was one of those terrifying true stories on how we nearly didn’t make it. You know when your life flashes before your eyes. It felt like an NDE experience.
It was like a bucket list entry gone wrong, The Great Wall of China ending in disaster. We never thought we’d almost die of the great wall of china hiking. It somehow turned into one of those cliffhanger stories, our great wall of china story. Yep you heard, we were hanging off a cliff, hanging on for dear life to be exact.
We’d like to say it was just down to one mistake, but it was more like 3 (maybe more) but hey we lived to tell the tale on our travel year. I guess this is why we travel. Ha.
Our great wall of china trip was an unforgettable experience and we felt we had to share this story with you all. If you like a good backpacker story, or enjoy watching Brits in China like the idiot abroad or even better – hearing terrifying stories then hit that like and subscribe to CrispyLife

Camping on the Great Wall of China
Kuinka telttailla Kiinan muurilla?
TÄSSÄ OHJEET:
1. Gubeikou (古北口 Gǔběikǒu) on Beijingistä n. 130 kilometriä pohjoiseen ja n. 3-4 tunnin matkan päässä kaupungin keskustasta. Kiinan muurin nimi on ”Panlongshan” eli ”Coiling Dragon Mountain” (蟠龙山). Osoite: Southeast of Gubeikou Town, Miyun County, Beijing
2. Valitse Pekingissä metrolinja 2 tai 13 (ennen klo 8 aamuruuhkaa) ja saavu Dongzhimen pitkän matkan bussiterminaalille.
3. Nappaa expressbussi numero 980 ja matkusta noin 1.5-2 tuntia Miyun kylään pysäkille ”Miyun changtu chezhan” (密云长途车站). Suosittelemme käyttämään busseissa julkisen liikenteen ladattavaa matkakorttia, sillä matka on tällöin puolet halvempi kuin käteisellä matkustettaessa. Bussikortti pitää leimata bussin sisälle saapuessa ja toisen kerran bussista poistuttaessa. Matka Pekingistä Miyuniin maksaa noin 6 yuania (1 euro).
4. Älä huomioi kalliita minibusseja tai taksikuskeja, jotka hyökkäävät haukan lailla kimppuusi bussista ulos astuessasi. Kävele siihen suuntaan, josta bussi saapui, ylitä risteys oikealle päin ja kadun varresta löydät bussipysäkin Gubeikouhun. Hyppää ensimmäistä bussia pienempään bussiin (bussi numero 25), joka ajaa noin tunnin välein Gubeikouhun reilun 50 kilometrin matkan. Matka maksaa kortilla maksettaessa 4 yuania ja kestää 1,5-2 tuntia.
5. Gubeikoussa lähin bussipysäkki muurin sisäänkäynnin luona on pysäkki juuri ennen suurta Gubeikoun tunnelia ”Yong Jun Road” (拥军路). Jos ajat vahingossa tämän pysäkin ohi kuten me teimme, seuraavapysäkki on muutaman sadan metrin päässä kyläkaupan kohdalla.
6. Pääsymaksu muurille on 25 yuania (4 euroa).
7. Muurille pääsee nopeimmin kylän vasemmalta laidalta ylöspäin lähtevää polkua seuraten.
8. Jos haluat kokea muurilla vaeltamisen päinvastaiseen suuntaan (kuten me teimme), kävele pienen sympaattisen kylän läpi tien vierustaa pitkin noin viiden kilometrin matka, jonka jälkeen saavutat muurille johtavat pitkät portaat. Tämä on lähellä Kiemurtelevan lohikäärmevuoren päätyä: oikealla vastaan tulee armeijablokki ja vasemmalla 13 kilometrin matka muuria pitkin takaisin kylään.
9. Hyvä vaihtoehto olisi ollut syödä lounas kylällä, sillä siellä oli paljon paikallisia ravintoloita ja olisimme säästyneet painavan ruoan kantamiselta.
10. Jos yövyt muurilla, muistathan siivota jälkesi. Toivomme, että paikka pysyy yhtä puhtaana ja alkuperäisen näköisenä vielä tulevaisuudessakin, jotta seikkailuja rakastavat pääsevät nauttimaan tästä ainutlaatuisesta kokemuksesta!
11. Bussi nro 25 takaisin päin lähtee ison tien varresta kauppaa vastapäätä olevalta bussipysäkiltä. (Kauppa on tunnelin jälkeen samalla puolella tietä kuin missä Kiinan muurin sisäänkäynti on.)

Jinshanling, Great Wall of China | Beijing | China | Hiking the Great Wall
Here's our travel vlog of the Great Wall of China. We went during the busy Mayday period but escaped the crowds by visiting the Jinshanling section of the great wall. The wall was quite hard to climb in some places and we didn't get too far down the Great Wall of China as we didn't have too much time. It was a really amazing trip and I would totally reccomend the Jinshanling section of the Great Wall of China if you are visiting Beijing in the future.
The day ended with an epic rant after some incredibly rude and un-remorseful tourists cut a massive line and were all-round jerks. I don't generally feel good about other peoples misery but I'm glad to say that they missed the bus they were so rudely cut to get to.

The Great Wall of China: the Epic Hike you Need to Experience
We did it! After going against everyone's advice, we decided to visit the wild wall, via public transport, without a tour, in the middle of Golden Week; here's what we learnt!
With crazy drops and bricks falling into the abyss, we hiked, climbed, fell and stumbled up and down the unrestored section of the Great Wall of China. Wearing basic trainers, no hiking gear, and a mountain of cameras, we managed to capture some terrifying and incredible footage of our experience.
If you have any questions about doing this yourself, please fell free to message us using the comment section below!
