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

Steep Island

Low swell good to enjoy a nice East route but you want to do a short one? This is perfect with varied rocks, cliff jumps, caves, clear water, and more.

CWB Golf route

Espectacular cliffs, a few caves, as high scrambling and cliff jumping as you could wish for, ending up with seafood lunch and easy transportation.

Kap Lung stream

Small stream which is able to perfectly hold quite some rain with several waterfalls. Surrounded by nice hiking woods.

Town island

Do you like small sea caves and tunnels? This is for you. Long day out if self supported, a lot more manageable with boat approach.

Pak Lap – Tung A

Good scrambling & traversing, a few cliff jump options, in coasteering mode. Cute hike with one of the best camping spots & pristine beaches even dry.

Chi Ma Wan East

Coasteering on very peculiar rock formations including the biggest boulder maze found so far in Hong Kong on a foggy late winter day.

Devil’s Fist

One of the iconic hiking routes in HK. The old-timers used to consider it the stamina test for its distance. Increased difficulty by coasteering 😉

Starling inlet

Nice colored rocks, highlighting the contrast of the very civilized Mainland in one side of the sea and old and partly abandoned Hong Kong on the other.

Hoi Ha East

Clear water, easy scrambling, long coastal walk areas, quite some wading, several beaches. Better than expected route suitable for beginners.
