Introduction

Featuring 38 hiking trails of Hong Kong, this website depicts the countryside with lovely landscapes in which one may take refuge from the hustle and bustle of the city.

We have made reference to the grading adopted by the International Mountaineering and Climbing Federation (UIAA) and the information provided by the Country and Marine Parks Authority, taking into account factors including the length, gradient and surface condition of the route, as well as the time required to finish the whole trip. Covered in "The Hiking Scheme" are trails grouped under four categories: ¡§Easy¡¨, ¡§Moderate¡¨, ¡§Difficult¡¨ or ¡§ Very Difficult¡¨. You may choose the one suitable to yourself and your family so as to experience the pleasure of hiking.
