Hiking instead of going up by Cable Car at Mutianyu Great Wall

Hi:

Has anyone ever hiked up to the wall instead of taking the cable car? How far is it? I want to hike up and slide down. A travel agent who is selling us on the cable car tickets said it takes about 4-5 hours to go up. That cant be right.

Thanks.

It‘s one hour to the top of the cable car if you walk. As Mutianyu is a tourist trap, be careful of scammers around the area (especially when arriving by bus in Huairou).
