Weekend Trails in Hong Kong

Getting more and more into trails rather than roads after coming back from Mongolia. Fresher air, tougher terrain... definitely more fun!
Hong Kong is an amazing place for hikers/trail runners given its abundant options of routes and high accessibility. You can reach a hiking trail by public transport easily, have a few hours of hideaway from the crowded highways, and soon you can hit back to the main road and take a nap at home.
Among all long routes, the 100-KM MacLehose Trail is propably the most classic one in town. Streching from the eastern to the western side of New Terriorities, the trail is frequently visited by local and overseas hikers, especially from late summer until the end of November as the annual Oxfam Trailwalker race nears.
Started to do a 3 to 5-hour trail-hike every weekend. And today we went to the Stage 6-8 of MacLehose, a 20-KM climb that passes through Tai Mo Shan, the highest peak in Hong Kong where you can oversee the cityscape.
Lovely weather, lovely view and a lovely day.
