Description
Enjoy a unique aerial perspective of the Great Wall on this helicopter experience departing from the helipad just 200 meters away from the entrance of the Mutianyu Scenic Area.
We offer two flight routes:
Route A covers the entire Mutianyu Great Wall open to visitors, from Dajiao Tower at the southern end to the large “Be Loyal to Chairman Mao” characters in the north. You will also see some unrestored parts of the Wall, which are not open to the public. The round trip is about 15 km, with a flight time of approximately 10 minutes.
Route B includes the full Mutianyu section and extends to the wild Jiankou Great Wall (not open to tourists). The round trip is about 20 km, with a flight time of approximately 15 minutes.
You’ll board a Robinson R44 helicopter, a mature and widely trusted model known for its stability and reliability. The aircraft offers three comfortable passenger seats, allowing you to enjoy clear panoramic views through its wide windows.
Once in the air, your pilot will take you toward the Great Wall and ascend to roughly 25 meters above the ancient structure. From this height, you can admire the Wall’s curves, watchtowers, and surrounding mountains in stunning detail—close enough to even see hikers making their way along the steps. The flight provides a rare opportunity to appreciate the scale and beauty of the Great Wall from above, offering a perspective that simply isn’t possible from the ground.
This immersive aerial journey is designed to highlight the dramatic scenery of the Mutianyu section, known for its well-preserved architecture and sweeping landscapes.
Whether you're seeking unforgettable photos, a once-in-a-lifetime viewpoint, or a special highlight for your Beijing trip, this helicopter flight delivers a memorable and truly unique Great Wall experience.
