At the end of Autumn, we choose a special route for our hikers. We organized the hike alsmot 5-6 years ago. Seldomly hiking clubs post the trail. One reason is that it is not as famous as the trial from Yidu to Wudu, although these two trails are in the same area. One is that this route condition is a bit complicated. Hikers must have some hiking experience.


Shidu is located in Fangshan District, Beijing, about 96kilometers to the west of downtown Beijing. We organized the hike from 1 Du to 5 Du few times; this time we will hike from 5 Du to 9 Du. It is more wild and natural, and you experience karst landscape closely. Most of time, we are in the jungle. Hope you could enjoy it.


Shidu Town is a town in Fangshan District in far southwestern Beijing, around 4 kilometres from the border with Hebei. Shidu, literally the "Tenth Ferry", is located in the valley of the meandering Juma River and so named because accessing the town is said to require crossing the river ten times. Shidu is known for the surrounding karst landscape, the largest in northern China, that is created by the Juma River cutting through the Taihang Mountain. Even you don't need to go Ha Long Bay in Vietnam, Vang Vieng in Laos, and Guilin in China. Enjoy the amazing landscape in this hike.

Gubeikou includes foursections: Wohushan Great Wall, Panlongshan Great Wall, Jinshanling Great Wall, and Simatai Great Wall. It is the essence of the Ming Dynasty Great Wall. This section is built along the Yan Mountains, and the Chao River, where the town of Gubeikou is, divides it into two distinct parts. It was originallynamed "Beikou", which literally means "Northern Pass","Gu" (ancient) was only added by later generations. It protected ancient China from Mongol/Manchu invasion from the north.


The Panlongshan or "Coiling Dragon Mountain" Section of the Great Wall is one of the few sections that is open to tourists but hasn't as yet been officially restored, meaning it is one of the last remnants of the wild Great Wall. For this reason, parts of the wall are crumbling and vegetation peeks through the cracks, endowing this section with a certain ruined beauty.


It is located in Miyun district, Beijing, about 140 kilometers to the west of downtown Beijing. Youwill be satisfied with the achievement and the scenery when you get there. Hiking toward East, you will first arrive at Jinshanling,then Simatai.

Itinerary



  • Arrive at mutianyu Great wall. Take the shuttle bus from the ticket office to the foot of mountain. Enjoy a scenic cable car ride to tower 14. Perfect for saving energy and taking photos.

  • Once you reach the summit, you have several routes to choose from, but I recommend two:

  • Route A(6-8km, 3-4h): Walk from Tower 14 to Tower 20 to reach the best viewpoints of Mutianyu with the most beautiful scenery and fewer tourists. Learn about the history, defense system, and unique features of Mutianyu, then return to Tower 14 to descend. You will reach the highest point of Mutianyu Great Wall, where the final section has a steep slope of up to 70 degrees, requiring certain physical fitness. Route

  • B(4km,2.5h) Walking from watchtower 14 to watchtower 6, this section of the route is gentler compared to the Route A, making it ideal for visitors who prefer not to tackle steep paths. Along the way, you can enjoy the picturesque scenery of rolling green hills. Finally, you can choose to descend by chairlift or toboggan. Suitable for adults and kids.

Step into the shadows of 1930s Beijing on this evening walk inspired by Paul French’s best-selling book Midnight in Peking. Follow the story of Pamela Werner’s unsolved murder, a mystery that gripped the city and revealed the darker undercurrents of its past.


In January 1937, the body of the young British woman was discovered at the base of the old city wall near the Fox Tower. Her death shocked both the foreign community and local Beijingers, sparking an investigation that drew together colonial intrigue, espionage, and the city’s underworld. Her case was never solved.


Decades later, Paul French took a deep dive into old police reports, private letters, and diplomatic archives to piece together what may have really happened. The result was Midnight in Peking—a haunting, bestselling book that reads like a noir thriller, but every word meant to reveal the truth.


Led by guides personally trained by Paul French, the walk takes you through alleys and landmarks once at the heart of the case. Along the way, you’ll uncover forgotten corners of old Beijing and hear stories that bring its history to life.


This is a different kind of walk through Beijing—one that winds through forgotten corners of the city where history, crime, and colonial intrigue collide.


Runs the last Sunday of every month
6–10 pm
Price: RMB 398 per person
