Dear Fridayhikers,

We will take the trail up Lion Rock this Friday.  If time permits, we can go to Amah Rock as well.  SS suggests that we start from 天馬苑 and go uphill, take a rest at  回歸亭, and walk towards the Lion Rock with beautiful views of Kowloon and HK island.  We will then walk down to Wong Tai Sin where we can have lunch.   After lunch, SS has arranged with Canice to take those interested to 樂耕園 to visit his charity enterprise.   The walk will be about 3.5 hours.

MEETING TIME:  9:15 am

MEETING PLACE:  Kowloon Tong MTR.   Take Exit C to Festival Walk and go up to Level G.  Go to the minibus terminal and find minibus #73 which goes to Tsz Wan Shan.  


Please  bring enough water, sun protection, rain gear etc.

SS will lead the way this Friday !

Dear Fridayhikers,

This surely breaks all records of last minute posting of hiking blog notices.

Dragon's Back it will be, thanks to Rita's response.   We will walk from To Dei Wan to Siu Sai Wan.  Estimated time about 3.5 hours. 

Meeting time:  9:15 am  (bus departs at about 9:18)  

Meeting place:  No. 9 Bus stop at Shaukiwan Bus Terminal

We will gather at To Dei Wan in case some of you want to take an early bus. 


Please bring sun protection, rain gear, and plenty of water.

Dear Fridayhikers,

Tomorrow we will go to Long Ke.  If it rains heavily today or rains tomorrow morning, we will switch to Chek Keng.  We can decide tomorrow.  Chek Keng is paved while Long Ke is not and a small section may be muddy. 

It is relatively long and there is no eating place on the way.  If we visit the rocks and the dam at the end of the trail, it is likely we will return to Sai Kung only at 3.30 or after.   Therefore, bring sufficient water and pack your lunch. 

Meeting time:  9 am

Meeting place:  29R village bus stop outside McDonald's on 親民街 in Sai Kung town centre.  

The village bus leaves at 9:15 am.  Please queue at the minibus stop when you arrive.  



As usual, bring rain gear, sun protection, walking stick, etc.
