Sunday - Dragon's Back hike

After Saturday's 10.5 mile hike, we lost 3 of the hikers (including Robin) for Sunday's hike. Our intent was to start on stage 7 of the Hong Kong trail and walk to Dragon's Back and Shek-O Beach and complete another 10-12 mile hike.

We started off at the Sai Wan Ho MTR stop and boarded Bus #14, heading to the dam and start. The problem was we got off at the wrong stop to catch stage 7.

After receiving some directions from a local we found a trail and started hiking to Dragon's Back.


There were some great views along the way as this was probably one of the clearest days I've seen in Hong Kong.

We made a loop around dragon's back and then headed towards the dam to start the first part of the trail that we missed. Finished back along Tai Tam road and then took a taxi into Causeway Bay for lunch at a pub. Another 10 mile hike
