Route Description
We seldom explore outlying islands. Let's try Lamma Island this time. We are checking out southern Lamma Island this time. There is obvious path that goes from Sok Kwn Wan to Mt Stenhouse. The portion from Mt Stenhouse to the shore is not too straight forward, but it is still manageable. When you start leaving the shore, the path becomes tricky. It really takes a bit of trial-and-error. Luckily, the bushes were not too formidable.
When we visited the route, there were a recent hill fire. Some bushes were burnt away making the path more visible. When the plants refurnish, the navigation effort may triples.
