Abstract: A guide wire for guiding a dilator to be inserted into a living body includes: a flexible elongated shaft portion; a puncture portion at a distal end portion of the shaft portion to form a hole in biological tissue; and an elastically deformable cover portion covering the puncture portion. The cover portion includes a sparse pitch portion that has a wire member wound in a spiral shape and axially contractible, and a distal end cover located on a distal end side of the sparse pitch portion and covering at least a part of the puncture portion. The puncture portion includes a first contact portion. The distal end cover includes a second contact portion configured to contact the first contact portion from a proximal end side, so that relative axial movement of the first and second contact portions is restricted by the first contact portion contacting the second contact portion.
