2014-8-29 Victoria Gap - Victoria Peak Garden - Pokfulam Reservoir - Chi Fu (爐峰峽 - 山頂公園 - 薄扶林水塘 - 置富)

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.


When I planned the hike, the forecast weather was similar to last week, so I chose a paved trail.  Although the forecast for Friday changed today, "Mainly fine and hot 27-32 deg. C with moderate east to SE winds", I do not intend to change to another one due to hot weather.  The present route is shady and apart from the first part, it is mainly level or downward, hence it should be a piece of cake for us.  The whole journey covers about 7 km and we should finish it within two and a half hours and had our early lunch at Chi Fu Gardens.
