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

Tsing Tam stream

Tsing Tam stream (清潭石澗) is an infrequently hiked & relatively wide jungle stream with several nice pools and waterfalls.

Basalt island coasteering

Next to Bluff island you can find another premium coasteering spot whose highlight is a 30 meters arch to swim through.

Cape D’Aguilar coasteering

Spectacular coasteering in the South East of Hong Kong island. Nice rock formations, caves, some history, and an impressive waterfall plunging into the sea.

Bluff island North

Bluff Island is a good spot for anchoring a “boat party”. A nice beach, water, corals, and fun short coasteering.

High Island streams

Tin Mei and Tin Mei Han streams (田尾坑右源), two tributaries to High Island reservoir, provide some fine views & fun.

Ocean Park coasteering

Having fun under the amusement park. Sea caves, nice rock formations, fishermen getting all kinds of different mollusks.

Stanley coasteering & stream

A route that includes good coasteering and stream hiking starting from Stanley main beach, ending undefined (different options).

North Heaven’s Gate

Another interesting way up to Lantau Peak. A little cave, steep paths, and picturesque cliffs included.

Wong Nai Tun stream

Nice stream with a couple of thin but cute waterfalls ending in Thousand Islands or another easy stream down.
