Trip Description
The route covers a few hills, they are Fa Peng Teng, Tai Yam Teng, Tai Shan, Lai Pik Shan and Tai Che Tung. None of them is very tall and yet there is no big mountain nearby, you can enjoy very good panorama view in most section of this hike. You can oversee the airport and the Disney Land as you trek along.
Although this hike is not short, the path is easy to follow, so we can cover it without too much effort and time. There is basically no shelter, it would be punishing in hot summer time.
