Hiking | challenge yourself - tai mo shan hike

Start from Tai Wo and walk along Kam Shan Road, passing by Pun Chun Yuen. When you reach Shek Lin Road, continue straight and pass through Lin Au village until you see a sign for the Wilson Trail towards Chau Ma Kong. The uphill path is quite narrow and passes through the forest. The path is also surrounded by thick vegetation, so basic hiking gear is essential (e.g. long trousers, long sleeve top, gloves and trekking poles). After walking for just over 2 hours, you will reach the peak of Chau Ma Kong (588 m).

After reaching Sze Fong Shan, the path descends to Sze Fong Shan Pavilion. From here, a concrete path ascends towards the PLA Radar Station. After passing the stone wall and barbed wire on your approach to the radar station on the top of Tai Mo Shan, you will see 6 Chinese characters on the top of the building, which means “Listen to the party and follow the party”. After reaching the peak, you can descend via the narrow road, which is famous for its many twists and turns. When you reach Rotary Park, follow the road for 5 minutes and take bus no. 51 towards Tsuen Wan to end this route.
