章节摘录
插图:This book is an updated version of a pioneering work titled, Hik-ing Around Beijing, which was published in 2003 and contains theBeijing Hikers' most popular hikes, The former book was inspiredby four friends —— Laure Fuller. Huilin Pinnegar, Seema Bennettand Nicky Mason. Realizing that there was a wonderful world ofrugged mountains and valleys, waterfalls and temples within anhour or so's drive of the Chinese capital, they set out to explore.They had the invaluable assistance of Huilin's husband, Gary, anenthusiastic hiker himself.There were not many maps of the areas outside Beijing availablein those days, but one that Gary spotted showed —— apart fromthe usual symbols —— dotted lines meandering through empty ar-eas and joining villages. He guessed, quite rightly, that these wereancient paths used by the villagers for communication, wood cut-ting and reaching hillside fields. These paths became the founda-tion for most of the hikes in this book.
