Half-day, fairly strenuous hike from near Quarry Bay MTR to Stanley. For some reason the GPS shows me doing it in less time than it actually took. My time was about 4.5 hours at a moderate to brisk pace, with a few short breaks. It's up-and-down 6 seperate peaks (Siu Ma Shan, Mt. Butler, Jardine's Lookout, Violet Hill, and the Twins). Lot's of stair climbing. Nothing technical. Mix of pavement and...
Wilson Trail Section 1from Wong Nai Chung Gap to Stanley, 4.8 km, 2.0 hours, Very Difficult.

From Discovery, take the Bus No. 5 to the final station, of leave Bus No. 8 or walk there from the Ferry. The trail starts on an iron stair behind the last house, along a water catchment, and goes up to the DB golf course. From there, over to the reservoir and the up the "Lao Fu Tao", the Tiger Head Hill (465 m) watching over DB; the ascend will take a...
2 May 2010 Sunny and fine 22 - 28 degree Celsius Relative humidity 65 - 95% The weather was exceptionally fine this weekend. Time to challenge ourselves for a strenuous hike. The trail followed mostly Wilson Trail stage 2 in the reverse direction. We took MTR and came out of Taikoo Shing MTR station from the Exit B. Turn left until we met Greig Road. Walk up the road until it turned left. There's a post sign...
A good hike from Chai Wan to Tai Tam Tuk reservoir. This hike is
essentially stages 7 & 8 of the Hong Kong trail, but in reverse.
Highlights include walking the Dragon's Back which has some amazing
views of the Shek-O and Big Wave Bay areas. The last part is very flat
as you follow a catch water to the reservoir. However, it does provide
some great views of the harbor and I did encounter quite a...
Start in Bowen Road Park. Climb up a steep stair to a foot path which leads to Magazine Gap Reservoir, Head east towards Wan Chai Gap Road. Climb up to Wanchai Gap and down to Aberdeen.
This is the main trail around Hong Kong Island. You can either do it at once (a very, very long day) or hike / run sections of it. The views on the City and the Ocean are quite stunning.
We took the #1 bus to the first stop after Shek Pik reservoir. We hiked about 6km on the cement drainage path before following a trail that hugged the coast the rest of the way around to Tai O.The fort was very cool to see, as well as the rock formations. The hike wasn't very hard at all, there is almost no elevation gain the way we went (shek pik to Tai...
