Gubeikou was a strategic northern gateway to Beijing and later a battlefield in 1933. Its unrestored ramparts and varied towers give the first part of the walk a distinctly rugged character.
At Jinshanling, the Wall shifts toward carefully built brickwork and a chain of towers with differing shapes and defensive functions. The roughly 10 km crossing makes that change visible on foot.
