Route Description

The trip starts from Tun Mun Leng King Estate (屯門良景村), ends at Ling To Monastery (靈渡寺). Most the hiking routes in New Territories West are very sandy, this one is no exception. Yet the sand is adding fun to the route. You need to be more vigilant to avoid slipping.

This is the highlight of this trip. There is a very narrow bottle neck with sandy surface. It is called Life-on-a-line (一綫生機). It real hurts if you fall while trying this 一綫生機.

We are leaving Yuen Tau Shan (圓頭山), the decending path is very steep and there is chain set up as a hand rail. The countryside map does not show all the paths. Please stick to the one in the map. Other minor paths may lead you to the middle of nowhere.
