WildChina Education prides itself on its expeditions to China’s wildest and most clandestine destinations. Believe it or not, a hiking or biking trail (that doesn’t have escalators or man-made steps) can be found within your province; you just need to know where to look – that’s where we come in. As a licensed recognized activity provider (RAP) with the International Award Duke of Edinburgh organization, we hold ourselves to the highest health, safety & risk management standards in helping your students practice and qualify for their bronze, silver, or gold awards. Our team can help with both adventurous journeys and trainings.
Having run about 2000 kids worth of school trips within Beijing we can tell you one thing: Beijing is BIG.

Here’s a sample Beijing adventurous journey itinerary.
The highest ‘mountains’ in Shanghai sadly fail to exceed even 150 meters above sea level. However, we have planned and delivered adventurous journeys for the Duke of Edinburgh award in Shanghai. How?
