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 Sam Kei

A piece of coastline absolutely only recommended for those who want to check it ALL 🙋‍♂️😅 Saikung clear water and a little more here.

Ko Lau Wan East

A mixture of pretty rocks, short nice scrambling, and long pebble sections. Extra fun if you are ready to go long including Wong Mau Chau.

Gorbea/Anboto/Alluitz

Three mountains in Bizkaia. Fun trail run, steep hikes and a bit of scrambling. Remembering my first hikes & camps.

Bibliography

Here quite some of the books and webs I have referenced in various posts and we have talked about in our long chatty outings.

Beacon Hill

Various short outings including a climbing crag, a bit of scrambling, a gully, WW2 tunnels, bamboo forests, nice views of the city & more.

Ha Kung Hang

蝦公坑 (Shrimp Stream) is a cute, small, & easy stream meanwhile you exit it halfway through. For those looking for less hiked routes.

Chou Shing stream

Another stream feeding Shing Mun. Significantly smaller, but not a bad one, with a few pretty waterfalls and pools. Good to continue exploring the area.

Diving in Hong Kong

When most people think about diving, the Philippines or other tropical areas come to mind. In Hong Kong, we do have some spots where to enjoy it too.

Great boulder forest

Jungle + underground fun in the further West. Only for those looking for more remote outings with the good and bad. Some won’t like it.
