Miyun’s Baihe River Valley is home to one of the most developed rock-climbing areas near Beijing. There are as many as 45 established sport (bolted) and traditional routes. The main climbing area is adjacent to a sandy beach near the river, which makes it an ideal place for camping. In winter, there is an ice-climbing park with a man-made ice wall. Longtan Lake Park Climbing Wall (6718 6358 ext 9031) organizes trips to Baihe; call them to find out when they’re going next. (Make sure you bring all your own gear.) Baihe River’s trail is located further upriver, in Huairou District. From the entrance gate, the river is about four kilometers away on fairly decent trails. There are camping spots on both sides of the river, but cross over to the far side for better views and more privacy. If camping is not your cup of tea, stay in local village guesthouses.
