Ma On Shan Country Trail

#HongKongInDepthTour Ma On Shan Country Trail is a hiking route that combines natural landscapes, geological wonders, and historical relics, suitable for intermediate hikers. The entire trail spans Ma On Shan and Sai Kung District, featuring spectacular mountain ranges, red earth formations, and distant views of Pat Sin Leng. Ma On Shan’s summit is named for its saddle-like shape; the terrain is steep but offers limitless scenic beauty, providing a refreshing and uplifting experience when looking afar. Along the way, you can explore former mining sites, including old mine entrances and iron ore remnants, which are important parts of Hong Kong’s industrial history. In spring and summer, wildflowers bloom on both sides of the trail, contrasting beautifully with the blue sky and mountain shadows, making it a great time for photography and sightseeing. Compared to the more popular Lion Rock or Victoria Peak, Ma On Shan is quieter and more pristine, ideal for those seeking tranquility and a natural dialogue. This place is not just for hiking but is a deep experience to calm the mind and discover the inner natural beauty of Hong Kong.
