Hong Kong has a lot of beautiful trails. I’m in my mid 30s and decided to hike the MacLehose Trail with a few friends to round out the year in Dec 2020. It’s a 100km trail that runs from the East to the West of Hong Kong and it passes through mountains, lakes, sandy beaches and even a few WW2 tunnels. We split the trail into 4 separate days, so around 25km a day. Some parts were tough, but the experience as a whole was pretty rewarding.
One of my favourite trails in HK is MacLehose section 1 and 2 in Sai Kung, basically around the reservoir and through the beaches, absolutely gorgeous hike. I think it’s about 20 km and took me a good 5 hours last time.
HK as a whole is great for hiking, lots of different trails, that can get quite challenging due to the terrain. I usually do Quarry Bay to Parkview on Saturday mornings, great little 2 hour hike with lots of stairs to climb.
