About Great Wall Adventure Club

Our story began in Beijing in 2003, with a simple aim: help visitors experience the Great Wall through well-planned, personally supported journeys.

What to know

China roots, international service

Great Wall Adventure Club organizes Great Wall day hikes, overnight camping trips and longer treks, as well as private journeys through China. Founded in Beijing and now headquartered in the United States, we connect local route knowledge with straightforward communication for international travelers.

A journey that fits the people taking it

Some guests want a first look at a restored section of the Wall. Others come for long days on remote ridges or a night close to the mountains. We help you compare the walking, travel time, accommodation and support behind each choice before deciding on a route.

The same approach shapes our wider China trips. Cultural visits, outdoor activities and time with family or friends are balanced against the practical realities of distance, transport and your preferred pace.

Experience with private travelers and groups

During the 2008 Beijing Olympics, we welcomed athletes, families and international visitors, including guests connected with teams from the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and other countries. NBC also engaged our team for a televised Great Wall hike. Those varied assignments strengthened the coordination that supports our smaller private departures today.

People behind the itinerary

Guides, drivers and local accommodation partners make the written plan work on the ground. Our team stays involved as arrangements develop, explains the details before departure and provides the contacts needed during the journey. Your priorities guide the planning; our experience helps turn them into a workable trip.
