Route Description
This route is very close to the city centre and is easily accessible by public transport. We started from Kowloon Reservoir. Ribbons and signs are sufficient. We have to go through some forest in this trip, some parts are a little bit bushy. Do expect a lot of spider web if you visit this route in summer time. One of the highlight of this trip to find the World War II relic used for defending HK against Japanese invasion.

This is an entrance of a tunnel. It is about 30M long. The condition is pretty accessible. The other side of the tunnel is probably a artillery battery. The construction was part of the defense used by UK in World War II.

We took a short rest here and we were about to hike up to Golden Hill or the Kam Shan. This climb is very a good cardio exercise.
The uphill route is by large a well maintained hiking path.
