Description

One of the Seven Wonders of the WorldThe Great Wall of China has to be the ultimate building project the world has ever known, constructed by human hands over 2000 years ago, it stretches across this hilly region with long spurs and watch-towers often disappearing into the mists.

Our trek is very varied, as we pass through woodland and terraced farmland, and follow the contours of the beautiful hills and mountains in remote areas north of Beijing. We follow old sections of the Great Wall, as well as restored sections with smooth flagstones and lots of steps!

By joining #TeamDEBRA, you can help DEBRA to provide care and support to people living with EB and fund research into future treatments.
