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

Wu Lei Tau Left Left

Absolutely not recommended unless you are into gardening and want to open your way up through bamboos & bush in a minuscule stream.

Sai Keng stream

Beautiful stream with several high waterfalls and deep pools. Side paths available or very high in waterfalls climbs. Be careful with the latter.

Sai Keng Left

Tiny creek with little water a big part of the year but which can be really fun & pretty after heavy rain. Short and with relatively bushy exit.

Cheung Ching Hang

On my way to Saikung country park from New Territories I saw clearly from the bus a big waterfall. I added it to the long check / to do list.

Ngau Yee creek

I completely forgot to upload this route 😅 Ngau Yee creek (牛耳石坑 = cow ear creek). Relatively low flow and not specially interesting.

Shek Shui Kan

No more than potential side fun if you are in Bride’s Pool, Plover Cove area. Low flow stream with a nice wall and several pools en route.

Ma Niu Ho

Tiny stream in the middle of nowhere plunging into the sea. Oxidized iron red water atop. Only for the most hardcore I want to see them all.

Ta Lam Wu

Checking further the valley of Ho Chung. Decent low-flow tributary with a few nice falls and some surprises to end the stream.

Swallowtail stream

Unnamed yet. I found hundreds of Swallowtail moths while checking it. The reason why I called it that way. Almost completely uninteresting.
