trip report by site editor Rick McCharles
Arriving at my hostel after midnight, I was pleased to meet local hiker Michael Edesess at 8:30am next morning.
He explained that hiking Hong Kong usually meant a short subway trip, a shorter walk through a modern shopping mall … and directly on to the trail!
Well signed. Well maintained. Super popular tracks.
… This must be the best major city in the world for getting on a trail quickly and easily.
Michael clearly had a destination in mind …
And here it is.
We finished at Groucho’s on Stanley beach for Michael’s favourite Belgian brew and a burger.
This is urban hiking!






A well earned burger after a fun adventure day out!
