Beijing tour
Hike the wild Jiankou and restored Mutianyu sections of the Great Wall, then relax by trout ponds in a serene mountain valley near Beijing.
This private two-day tour offers a rare combination of Great Wall hiking and tranquil trout fishing in the Huairou County mountains. On day one, explore the famous Mutianyu Great Wall with its well-preserved watchtowers and cable car access. Descend to a valley where crystal-clear trout ponds, fed by mountain streams, create a peaceful setting for fishing. Day two takes you to the rugged Jiankou Great Wall, one of Beijing's most scenic and less restored sections, offering dramatic views of the wall snaking along the ridges. After the hike, return to your downtown hotel. Perfect for active travelers seeking both adventure and relaxation away from the crowds.

Actually the trout ponds are the breeeding ponds more than the fishing ponds! This area is the famous trout breeding centers in Beijing. The ponds linked to each other are quitely located in a valley at the foot of the mountains. On the top of the mountain, you can see the ruined section of the Jiankou Great Wall snaking on its range. Rainbows inhabit both lakes and streams. The water of the trout ponds here comes from the streams of the mountain. Rainbow Trout like colder running water temperatures. There are two kinds of trout - stocked trout and native trout. The trouts here are stocked trout.
You will get a simple fishing rod with fishing line, baits ( worms, minnows, mealworms, etc.). Fishing the stocked tout is more of entertainment than of prefessional fishing. All the ponds here are full of trouts! Don't stand on the shore! Let's start fishing!
When you catch one or two trouts, the local people will weigh the fish. We will pay the fish and get the fish either roasted and sliced raw for your lunch - yummy! The people will roast the fish in front of you. If you are bold enough, you may try a hand-on experience of the

fishing roasting. Beside the trout dish, you will have the chance to try many local varieties of foods and wild leafy vegetables.
After the later lunch, do a little hiking and stay at the local farmhouse for the night.
Transferred back to your downtown hotel in Beijing.
