Cross the Jade Belt Bridge from Yim Tin Tsai to reach Kau Sai Chau. Kau Sai Chau has Hong Kong's only public golf course, and the area near Yim Tin Tsai is part of the golf course. Follow the small path along the edge of the golf course to reach the golf course pier (Figure 9). There is no path from here. You have to go down from the pier to the beach, walk along the beach (Figure 10), and then turn onto the path. Continue along the outside of the golf course (Figure 11) to reach the hiking trail. During this time, the mountain is covered with beautiful white Indian hawthorn flowers (Figure 12). The 205-meter-high Yi Leng (Figure 13) is the closest peak to the golf course. The summit is full of strange rocks, the most famous of which is the Skylight Rock (Figure 14). Looking around from the top of the mountain, you can see the blue sea and blue sky common to islands, as well as the lush green golf course unique to Kau Sai Chau (Figures 1–8). The scenery is superb. The Kau Sai Chau area is very suitable for water sports. There are many people kayaking on the sea between Kau Sai Chau and Tiu Chung Chau (Figure 16). Near Kau Sai Village Pier (Figure 17), there are the Hung Shing Temple and the Japanese-style pavilion (Figure 18). Kau Sai Village is a quiet small fishing village, right next to the pier (Figure 19). On this traverse, because we had to catch the 1pm ferry (otherwise we would have to wait until 4pm), we didn't go to Yi Leng and the Inclined Gun Stone. We'll have to save that for next time. The total length is 8.4 km, with a cumulative climb of 500m, and it took 2 hrs and 45 mins. Transportation: Sai Kung—Yim Tin Tsai ferry ticket 40 HKD (round trip 50 HKD), Kau Sai Village—Sai Kung ferry ticket 65 HKD.

When I think of Yuen Sai Chau, the first thing I should think of is the golf course😂 However, in addition to playing golf, there are actually mountains to walk, but it is definitely an unsuitable route for beginners! ! There are two main ways to get to Hing Sai Chau. The first way is to take the Jockey Club boat from Sai Kung to Hing Sai Chau, while the other way is to take a boat from Sai Kung to Salt Marsh and walk across Hing Sai Chau via the Yuk Tai Bridge. Must must must remember! ! This route is really not simple, because I went twice to find the right way, and the main reason for the difficulty is because there is no obvious route, and the need to burst the forest, even with an offline map, can not always easily walk to the location to go. Since the route up the mountain is within the scope of the golf course, there is actually a certain danger on the way up the mountain🙈 I remember the first time I went, than the staff saw you exposed on the golf course even if you were immediately rushed🙈 However, the second time after several hard bursts of forest, found a relatively obvious concrete road up the mountain, all the way up to the check-in skylight stone location will feel, even if it will be scratched by branches and leaves, see the view will feel everything is worth it 😍 If you are interested in exploring, remember to do your homework before setting off~ #Autumn Good Places #Family Good Places #Hiking Photo #Hiking Route Recommendations #Weekend Trip #Hong Kong Good Places
