How many steps does the Great Wall of China have on its steepest section?

About 5,000

Background

The Simatai section has about 5,000 steps within just a few kilometers. Some steps are so steep they feel more like climbing. The wall was built over many centuries and is not the same everywhere. That turns every hike there into a small adventure.
