Pick fresh apples in Huairou's orchards, then hike the stunning Mutianyu Great Wall — all in one private day from Beijing.
Escape the city for a perfect autumn day combining rural fruit picking with a majestic Great Wall hike. Your private guide picks you up from your downtown Beijing hotel around 8:30am and drives north to Huairou Dashuiyu Fruit Picking Garden, a lush orchard about 70km from the city center. Huairou is famous for its seasonal bounty—apples, pears, Chinese chestnuts, and peaches. Spend a leisurely morning plucking ripe apples straight from the trees. After a pre-arranged Chinese lunch, continue to the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall, renowned for its well-preserved battlements and stunning mountain scenery. Enjoy a two-hour hike along the wall, taking in panoramic views with far fewer crowds than at Badaling. This private tour offers a relaxed pace, perfect for families, couples, or solo travelers seeking an authentic Beijing day trip blending nature and history.
