HK outdoor adventures

Hiking, running, swimming every bit of Hong Kong

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.

Tolo West

A picturesque (mostly in Instagram way) mangrove, clear water, some nice sandy areas, tiny interesting rocks and no more in this area.

Scrambling 101

A brief introduction to the activity that lies between hiking and rock climbing. Increasing the difficulty on routes good for the dry season.

Saikung kayak

Easy day out kayaking & coastal walking on the small islands in front of the Saikung main pier. Tons of sandy areas & almost no scrambling.

Devil’s Peak

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

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.

Lion Head

Pretty cliff with picturesque rocks & several scrambling & climbing options. Really bad quality rock all over the area. Be careful around.

Inverted Wrist

Another perilous path up to Lantau Peak. High scrambling with magnificent views of the Big Buddha and all the surrounding landscape.

TaiPoMeiHang

Small stream with a massive waterfall that you can see from the very road. Surprisingly little hiked and with not so clear navigation therefore.

Kau To main

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.
