The day and the hike was great for me, however for an older person, it is a hard hike. I was travelling with my Aunt who is 70years and she managed 8 of the 32 towers before going through the farmland that was suggested by the locals who follow you. We would have not know about the shortcut had they not told as, I suppose the tour guide just expected that everyone would make it within the fours you are given. Take lots of water. It is a long day - 6.10am pickup for us and back about 19.00pm in the evening. The only sour point was when we were dropped off a block and half from our hutong, with the guide saying this is where you get on, I really didn\'t feel like walking another step after a a 10.5 km hike. The views are spectacular though.

This is a MUST DO hike! The hike itself is breathtaking in scenery and exertion! If you are in good overall health - DO IT! Please note that I used this same company for the Badaling Wall tour and the transport was a small comfortable bus with a competent driver, the guide(Allen) very knowledgeable and helpful and the lunch was great.
