MacLehose Trail|The best mountain and sea route around Guangzhou~

MacLehose Trail is worthy of being certified by National Geographic as the most beautiful hiking route. Po Pin Chau, Long Ke Wan, and Ham Tin Wan are really beautiful and worth a hike👍👍 Two days and one night camping⛺️with light equipment from Guangzhou. ☀️Day 1: East Dam (M019) - Long Ke Wan (M021) - Pavilion 1 (M023) - Pavilion 2 (M025) - Sai Wan Camping (M030) ✅Cross the border from Luohu, Shenzhen, take the subway🚇to "University Station" Exit B, and then take a taxi to "East Dam High Island Reservoir" for CNY50/person (Note⚠️Do not get off halfway, be sure to get off at the reservoir to save some walking) ✅After arriving at the reservoir, you can go to "Po Pin Chau" for a round trip of 4 km➕take photos within two hours (‼️Do not take the coastal route on the reservoir side, which is more dangerous. You can go to the sculpture and take the uphill route over the mountain, which is safer) ✅It is easy to walk from the reservoir to "Long Ke Wan", 1.5 km in one hour, very beautiful! ✅The road from Long Ke Wan to "Sai Wan" is more difficult, 8 km‼️You have to climb several mountains and many primitive mountain roads. You can wear knee pads and pay attention to the time of play. If you walk at night, it is recommended to walk together! ⭐️Tips: There is no supply from East Dam Reservoir to Sai Wan, so be sure to bring 2 liters of water to drink! · ⛺️Sai Wan Camping The first store is a little more expensive, but it has a fenced camping site to avoid wild boars. There are two more stores inside to compare the prices of goods. Ice pineapple is recommended🍍If the campsite is by the sea, you should guard against wild boars🐗Hang all the food on the tree away from the tent⛺️ · ☀️Day 2: Sai Wan (M031) - Ham Tin Wan (M035) - Mountain Top (M39) - Downhill MacLehose Trail End Point (M042) - (M042) Down to Pak Tam Chung Pier on the right - Take a boat to Tap Mun Island - Take a public boat (HKD11/person) to Wong Shek Pier - Take Bus 94 to Sai Kung Station - Return to Choi Hung Station · ✅The route on the second day is relatively easy, mainly cement roads, but you have to climb mountains, which is not friendly to knees. There are supply points in Ham Tin Wan and Tap Mun Island on this section, so you don't need to bring too much water. The scenery is also beautiful and good for photos🌅 · ⭐️Entry-Exit Permit for Hong Kong and Macau➕valid endorsement. Accommodation in Hong Kong is too expensive during holidays. You can apply for two endorsements, so you can play in Hong Kong during the day and return to Shenzhen for two nights. After using them up, you can continue to apply for endorsements! · 👚Travel advice Be sure to pay attention to the weather. If it rains, it is not recommended to go. Muddy roads are definitely difficult to walk on rainy days! · ⚠️Please follow local policies and hike safely. MacLehose Trail is currently open for hiking. ·
