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

Tung Chung falls

Pok To Yan North stream (箔刀屻北坑) with its various tributaries is recommended only for the most hardcore “I want to see all streams”.

Long Ke Wan West

A back up short coasteering if the sea conditions are not at their best around. Allows you to enjoy some of the views ending on a nice beach.

Tei Shek stream

An easy, short, nice stream with several waterfalls and pools in Lantau. To add for a long day or good for beginners (explanation) on its own.

Clear Water Bay

Fun caves, good scrambling walls, relatively clear water, quite some fishes & green egg island around the Clear Water Bay Headland.

Cross-training

I have several friends and readers who have asked me about my weekday training and recovery exercises. This post is going to be long and I’ll update/improve it for a while.

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.

Trio Beach

An easy route full of cliff-jumping opportunities, clean water, beaches, and varied rock formations and colors. Good for beginners.

Kat O – Crescent

Exploring further the remote islands on the North of Hong Kong. Cute and relatively easy if you are ready for long swims or have a support boat.

Tung Lung Chau West

Even if it is not as spectacular as the East coast this is a fun & significantly easier route full of beautiful cliffs, deep caves & clear water to jump into.
