Every trail on this page is compiled from field surveys, GPS-corrected tracks, and direct reports from hikers on the ground. We do not publish a Great Wall section until we have verified its legal access status, current ticket/fee policies, and what happens when things go wrong — because on Beijing's wild ridges, a 300m GPS error or a missed last train is the difference between a great day out and a SAR callout.
