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.
1 Nov 2009 Very fine day 24 - 29 degree Celsius Relative humidity 81% Yellow fire danger warning As the weather was really fine, we planned an easy trip around The Peak to see the gorgeous views of Hong Kong Island.Taking Bus No. 15 from Central, we reached The Peak Galleria after about 30 minutes. The starting point of the trip was at Lugard Road. At the junction of Lugard Road and...
Stage-5 : Jardine's LookoutWong Nei Chung Gap > Mount Parker Road 4Km - 1.5Hour - Strenuous hiking
Start: Parkview (These are a large group of serviced apartment
buildings - the only buildings in the area - Taxi drivers usually know this name)
on Wong Nai Chung Gap Road - Taxi from/to Causeway Bay costs around $50You will easily see the trailhead once you arrive at Parkview. In fact a good portion of the HK trail stage 5 overlaps with Wilson Trail Stage 2. Stage 5 is full...
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.
This is another one of Hong Kong Island's classic trails. Great for hiking and trail running. The trail goes all the way from North Point / Quarry Bay through TaiTam Reservoir / Country Park to Stanley. It should take about 3 hours. This hike is a great way to experience the many different faces of Hong Kong Island.
