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

Dog’s Teeth

I have written about this iconic area several times. I have been asked further details, so here all the main variants that you can hike.

Round island

Repulse Bay to Chung Hom Kok is coasteering introductory classic. If you are ready to swim long there is a more impressive route around.

Lamma East

East peninsula of Lamma coasteering. Relatively complex fun scrambling, a lighthouse, the Dinosaur Egg rock, a small arch to swim through.

Cheung Chau North

Cheung Chau offers a picturesque coastline perfect for coasteering. The North section is an intermediate route with nice scrambling.

Rock & rocks

There are tons of named rocks in Hong Kong. I will try to keep on adding here those I have visited for those looking for the Instagram pic 😛

Koh Lipe

White sand beaches, crystalline water, good snorkeling and a fun coasteering route in the Southernmost islands in Thailand.

Ling Ngau stream

Have you checked the other streams in the Badlands? Then go and try the third (and fourth) one. Not as fun but an interesting route anyhow.

Cheung Chau SW

Cheung Chau offers a picturesque coastline perfect for coasteering. In addition South West section is relatively easy.

Abandoned villages

There are a lot of abandoned buildings all around Hong Kong hills. Testament of the old ages and nature’s power, conquering back its territory.
