#春好去地方2024 Spring is a good time for outings. The temperature is suitable, and sunny days are even more refreshing. This time we went to Shek O Country Park in the southeast of Hong Kong Island. There are three main hiking trails in the park, including Hong Kong Trail Section 7 - Tai Tam Road to Toi Tu Wan, Hong Kong Trail Section 8 - Toi Tu Wan to Big Wave Bay, and Pottinger Hill Country Trail - Shek O Ma Tong Au to Cape Collinson Road. This time we went on an outing to Section 7 to 8 of the Hong Kong Trail. The scenery along the way is beautiful, with lush vegetation on both sides. You can also see Stanley, Tai Tam and Clear Water Bay in the distance. Overlooking the bay below and the mountains in the distance, it is refreshing and all the hustle and bustle is left behind. Route: Hong Kong Trail Section 7 to Section 8 (Tai Tam Road to Big Wave Bay) #Shek O #hiking #hiking route recommendation #country park #trip
