This is a great tour if you want plenty of time on the Wall - we spent 3hrs walking from Jinshanling to West Simatai. It is very scenic and the Wall still has its old bricks. Our tour guide Chang was very entertaining and helpful. The traditional lunch at the end was also excellent! Felt like a home cooked meal with plenty of options for vegetarians / Muslims! Highly recommend.

A parte il pick up che è avvenuto con un po’ di ritardo, l’escursione è superlativa e mi sento di consigliarla assolutamente. Requisiti fondamentali per compiere il tragitto di circa 5 km sono scarpe adatte (da ginnastica) e buona condizione fisica che permetta di camminare facilmente anche in parti molto pendenti e strade molto sconnesse, ripide e rocciose; sconsigliato per bambini piccoli e anziani. Il ristorante è buono e serve cibo tipico cinese. La guida è utile più che altro per indicare il percorso e come appoggio. La funivia è consigliabile (non compresa nel prezzo), anche se la prima parte si può fare tranquillamente a piedi come una passeggiata (ci si mette al massimo un’ora). Il tempo a disposizione per compiere l’intero tragitto è abbondantemente adeguato. Esperienza unica

Excelente tramo para recorrer con relativamente poca gente. inclusive hay lugares donde no hay gente, debido a que es una zona de difícil acceso ya que no está restaurada. Hay que considerar que tiene igualmente zonas muy empinadas, por lo que no lo recomendaría para gente mayor o niños muy pequeños.
