2014-6-27 Sir Cecil Ride (Braemar Hill Section) - Hong Pak Country Trail - Quarry Bay 金督馳馬徑(寶馬山段)- 康柏郊遊徑

The Fridayhikers are a group of friends who go hiking for leisure. Depending on the weather and road conditions, the hiking route may be subject to change without prior notice. Participants joining the hikes do so at their own will and at their own risk. They may consider buying their own insurance for better protection. The hike leaders, the organizers and any other participants in the hikes are exonerated from any liabilities and claims as a result of any accidents or losses arising.


The weather forecast  for  this Friday:   Fine and very hot (28-32 deg. C)  apart from isolated showers in the morning, with moderate south winds (Force 3 to 4) .  Preferably, we need to find a concrete, shady and relatively level path.


The chosen path is Sir Cecil Ride (Braemar Hill section) followed by Hong Pak Country Trail, which leads down to Quarry Bay (around 6.5 km).  We can finish the journey within about two and a half hours.  The route enables glimpses of the harbour at some points.


Assembly Place: Braemar Hill Playground 寶馬山遊樂場 (賽西湖入口側)

Time: 9:15 a.m.


Public transport to assembly point from MTR Station: 

       49M (Tin Hau MTR)
       25M (Causeway Bay MTR)

Please bring sun and rain gears and enough drinking water.

In case the thunderstorm signal, the amber/red/black rain signal remains hoisted at 7:30 a.m. on Friday, or less than 4 persons signed up to participate in the function, the hike will be automatically cancelled.

Regards,
Anson
