Great wall
This section of the Great Wall is renowned for its steep and challenging terrain. One part, called “Ca Bian Guo”, is so narrow that only one person can pass through at a time. Another section, known as “San Shi Ba Deng”, features stairs with a staggering incline of 60 to 70 degrees. Additionally, there is a segment referred to as the “Tiny Potala Palace”, built on a narrow and steep mountain ridge, resembling the famous Tibetan structure.
We will conclude our hike at the “Sky Stairs”, followed by a 40-minute downhill walk to the village. After enjoying a hearty lunch, we will begin our journey back, marking the end of this adventurous and unforgettable experience.
