Carmen · Answer

I thought I heard the government is afraid the poles might damage the structure of the wall...As well, has anyone done Machu Picchu and Jingshanling?  How do they compare in terms of difficulty?

Alisa · Answer

As certain sections of it are a little dangerous, the hiking poles are needed. My friend, Cindy, just came back from there. It is allowed indeed.

Beth · Answer

Yes, hiking poles are allowed. We were there today and they even sell them there.

Carmen · Answer

How much were the poles?  Hope you had fun!
