Taiwan feels sometimes like the big brother of Hong Kong, for me. Similar outdoor adventures are possible there but on a way bigger scale.
Tiny coasteering route with Coastal Defense museum start and a bit more of historical sites around. Perfect for a short one but for the water quality.
I had a few islets pending to check on the very North of Hong Kong. Just further up than Kat O. Ticking out the last parts of all HK coastline.
The little brother of Tai Shing main stream. Clear water and chances of encountering quite some fauna, but little more. Low flow.
It might be the most well-known of the perilous scrambles in HK. Once a feared courage & skills test, dangerously becoming an Instagram spot…
Small stream with just a few interesting trees and man-made structures. Very little flow, small climbable waterfalls, and relatively slippery rocks.
Another small stream heading up towards Needle Hill. Gentle high falls and pools that can look pretty in rainy season before bushy/slippery exit.
The most impressive cliff under Needle Hill. That feature aside, a not interesting, slightly tricky & trashed little flow stream within the jungle.
Cute short stream heading down from Needle Hill area. Several smaller waterfalls and pools. I usually hike it down after being in the upper area.
