Route:
We will start at Tanghe, paved ride to Simatai, continue 1.5km uphill
on the paved and downhill a couples of kilometers till we hit our
simple trail, before we reach Jinshanling, some bike pushing on the
steep rock till we reach Jinshanling Great Wall Tower. We need to pay
RMB 40/person (group offer) as an entry fee. Then we cross the arch,
downhill along the simple trail. Keep entry tickets with you, the
local will double-check at the exit of Jinshanling. We will continue
riding 2km downhill, when we see the Advertisement along the main road
on our right-hand side, that will be our 2nd valley, uphill and
downhill and uphill again, we will conquer Simatai Great Wall. MUSHES
