13 Feb 2005 |
Lantau Island |
Trip DescriptionThis trip starts at Pak Mong Village in Northern Lantau Island, it is a pretty leisure trip with captivating scenery. The first part is basically cemented footpath. The relative difficult part is the one that decends from the Tiger Head peak to Discovery Bay. That portion is rather steep and is covered by loose sand. Be careful! |
