The Great Wall - Gubeiko to Jinshanlin

CHINA | Tuesday, 21 October 2008 | Views [83]

Walked through the local villages and farmland to pick up the wall again. Once walking to the highest point for this section the view was amazing. The wall just went on for miles and miles, which obviously it does, that was the whole point, but to see the enormity from the viewpoint was breath taking. A great days walking and everyone was in great spirits, a challenging but fun day. The final stretch was into Jinshanlin on a restored section of the wall.

Memorable Points: Spectacular views, Ice Lollies at the summit (thank you little Chinese farmer man), Beating Emma (14 years my junior) up the final stretch of steps....I've still got it!
