Indeed still closed. I did the hike on June 26th.
There is a nice alternative, especially for those hot summer days like now.

My taxi driver dropped me off at the Main gate; and picked me up at the East gate. This is about 4KM hike on the wall plus some walking to get on and off the wall.

It took me about 3 hours including picture taking, time to view and resting. During my hike it was 35 degrees Celcius and sunny so it was quite tough but definitely worth it!

What do you mean by the "Main Gate" and the "East Gate"? Of Simatai? Of some other location? Please advise! Thank you!!
