Hiking, running, swimming every bit of Hong Kong

Author hkoutdooradventures

Iurgi /juːɡɪ/, Spanish (Basque) living in Hong Kong since 2004. My very first day here we hiked up to Lion Rock and since then I have been exploring all around Hong Kong, trail running, open water swimming, etc. Once I find really special places I like to show them to others. I love seeing the “I can’t believe this is HK” faces

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.

Kau To South

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.

Lung Tsai

The small brother of Ling Fung stream. Significantly less water, more complex navigation and high scrambling required though.

Ling Fung

Ling Fung Stream 凌風石澗 is a beauty full of waterfalls and pools of crystalline water. Please be considered and keep it that way.
