One of the most challenging hikes in HK

Sharp Peak (aka Nam She Tsim) Distance: 13km (round trip) Duration: around 5 hours [Route] Pak Tam Au > Chek Kang > Tai Long Au > Nam She Au > Sharp Peak Summit (along Maclehose Trail Section 2 and Sharp Peak Path) Recommended only for advanced hikers, Sharp Peak is one of the most challenging hikes in HK with steep and slippery slopes, but super worth it as the scenic views of Tai Long Wan and its surrounding beaches are just stunning beyond words! There are plenty of photo spots, two public toilets and even a restaurant along the way. On our way back, we also saw a junk boat near Chek Kang Pier heading to Wong Shek Pier for $20. It starts to get hard from Tai Long Au without anymore paved roads, so you’ll see some warning signs from the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department (AFCD). After conquering 3 slopes, you’ll reach the summit. Remember to wear hiking shoes with a good grip and bring gloves/ a hiking pole, water and some snacks! [How to get there] Take bus 96R (only on weekends and public holidays) from Diamond Hill to Pak Tam Au (around 1 hour) #行山路線推介 #無敵海景 #高空景觀
