How to start
Sticky post
Quite some people have asked me how they could start enjoying the type of adventures shown on this web. Here a short compendium of everything explained.
Easy day out kayaking & coastal walking on the small islands in front of the Saikung main pier. Tons of sandy areas & almost no scrambling.
Slab climbing, more scrambling & tiny caving around one of the main defense points in the WW2. It could be added to coasteering under.
Cha Kwo Chau 茶果洲 is a tiny island in front of Tong Fuk. A few peculiar rocks & little more. OK for a kayak visit or long-distance swimmers.
Pretty cliff with picturesque rocks & several scrambling & climbing options. Really bad quality rock all over the area. Be careful around.
Another perilous path up to Lantau Peak. High scrambling with magnificent views of the Big Buddha and all the surrounding landscape.
Small stream with a massive waterfall that you can see from the very road. Surprisingly little hiked and with not so clear navigation therefore.
Pleasant stream within the woods with quite some moss. A few deep pools and several easy-to-climb waterfalls, good for an easy day out.
Cute small stream very close to the city. One more in the area. Mostly within the woods, small falls and pools and not the cleanest water.
The small brother of Ling Fung stream. Significantly less water, more complex navigation and high scrambling required though.
