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

Kau Keng South

A small stream with a few peculiar rocks and a pretty chimney climb waterfall. One more above MacLehose section 10.

Left Kau Kwun

Small stream with big boulders best enjoyed after significant rain days. Finding your way around, above & under the boulders is fun!

Right Kau Kwun

The right tributary of Right Kau Kwun Hang 九管右坑右源 is a decent stream with low flow, several high waterfalls & a small slab.

Pak Shek stream

A disappointing stream with almost no waterfalls + dense vegetation navigation. You have significantly better options in the area.

Kam Sha stream

Nice rocks upstream with surprisingly decent flow and nice rocks too downhill, with the characteristic sandy dirt paths of the area atop.

Fung Wong Kai

Just a cute stream within a really long route, exposed path, some loose rocks, coasteering, bush. For the most hardcore I want to see them all.

Basque Country

At least once a year I go back to my roots. In this post I will compile all the routes and posts I write about the area for easier reference.

Fo Tan Hang

Mini gorge with deep pools starting almost from the very city. Tricky & dirty in that section. Cute & crystalline the upper you go.

Tai Hang

Tai Hang 大坑 is a wide cute stream with clear water & tons of small fauna. Quite flat with a few waterfalls. It can be quite slippery & thorny.
