Overview

The only half-day hike that takes you to overlook the Sai Kung Bay and it’s outlying islands from a plateau 400 metres above sea level. The hike starts at Ma On Shan Village, the site of the once biggest mine in Hong Kong. The mine closed in 1976 after 70 years of Iron mining. Most of the villagers have left the mountain, but some houses are still inhabited. The romantic nature trail leads uphill through forest to Ngong Ping Plateau. After one hour the mighty Ma On Shan to the left and Pyramid Hill up front. The views from the edge of the plateau over Sai Kung and the many Islands are breathtaking. This is a favourite starting and landing arena for hang gliders. Standing up here however provides areal views for those of us who aren’t flying too!

Activity itinerary

Explore the forests and mountains of Hong Kong by foot. The hike leads us uphill through forest, on a romantic trail on which we reach the Ngong Ping Plateau after one hour. The mighty Ma On Shan to the left and Pyramid Hill up front. The views from the edge of the plateau over Sai Kung and the many Islands are breathtaking. This is also a favourite starting and landing arena for hang gliders. After taking it all in, it's time to descend down to Sai Kung Village using one of the ancient trails, the very path villagers used to reach Kowloon on market days carrying goods back and forth over the hill. The Hike ends at Sai Kung Village. Here you have the option of returning straight back to the city with your guide, or enjoying the laid-back atmosphere and have lunch in one of the many restaurants on your own.
