PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a guide wire having improved safety by suppressing decomposition of a core material and a coil, and a method for manufacturing the same. SOLUTION: A long core material 20 having a tip portion and a base end portion, a tip coil 41 formed by winding a wire rod 43 and surrounding the tip portion of the core material 20, and a core material 20 and a tip coil 41. When a surface having a tip fixing member 51 for fixing the wire 43 on the tip side and having the maximum normal projection area of the terminal surface 44 of the wire 43 on the tip side of the tip coil 41 is defined as the maximum projection plane. , The normal vector A of the maximum projection plane is inclined with respect to the normal vector E of the orthogonal plane P passing through the intersection D of the terminal surface 44 and the axis Z of the wire 43 and orthogonal to the axis Z of the wire 43. There is.
