The Great Wall’ker

I’m happy to be back on the Great Wall. It has not changed. The weather has.

Getting off to a late start, I enjoyed walking up and down some steep hills by The Wall without sweating too much. Feels good. The evenings are a lot cooler. The leaves on the trees have changed colour.

I’m lying in a new tent, on a new sleeping mattress. I used more robust trousers for the first time today, and also a new GPS with a map giving a lot of information about roads, rivers and villages close by.

More about this later. Right now I just want to remind you of the article Bryan at the Great Wall Forum has written about the Great Wall Sections. You can see the link under this post.

6 kilometres today

As I have written several times before, the Great Wall Forum has been of great help in the planning of this walk. Bryan from the Forum has kindly agreed to write an article about the various sections of the Great Wall.

I can highly recommend reading this article as it is very informative and gives a lot of information about all the sections of the Great Wall. You can find it here: Great Wall Sections.

Many many thanks Bryan!!

I’m off to the Great Wall now. 14 new pictures have been uploaded to the website, so there is a new picture every day for the next two weeks. Before they run out I will have to make more pictures.

Have a good weekend!
