Route Description

This route is quite easy to locate although it is a bit far from any bus station. There are not a lot of guidling ribbons, but they are sufficient. The trail is running over the mountain ridge which is expected to be relatively free of thick bushes. However, this route is actually covered by bushes and trees below 450M. Luckily, the path is still quite visible, even though it is confusing sometimes. After all, it is a fun route.

We were hiking from Sham Wat to San Shek Wan on a concrete path. It was an mild uphill hike. Just before the path descend, you will see a small pavilion and the starting point as shown in the pictures.

This is a glimpse of the forest trekking. The muddy footpath is quite traceable.

We experienced less overgrown above this height. Below that we were either walking in a forest or pushing through dense bushes.

The background construction is Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (港珠澳大橋)

We could see the cable cars and the big Buddha.
