[2025 Hong Kong Attraction] Travel Guide for Lantau Country Park (Updated Mar)

There is no peak named Phoenix Mountain in Hong Kong's Lantau Country Park. We can choose another popular hiking destination called the Lantau Trail. The following is an introduction to Phoenix Trail: The Lantau Trail is a popular hiking route on Lantau Island in Hong Kong. It is 70 kilometers long and passes through the Lantau Country Park along the way, providing stunning natural scenery and diverse ecology. The following is a recommended section of the Phoenix Trail: Route: Section 1 of Phoenix Trail Starting point: Lantau Peak hiking trail End point: Nam Shan Village This route is about 7.5 kilometers long and takes about 3 to 4 hours to complete. On this stretch of the route, you'll pass Lotus Hill, the highest peak on Lantau Island, offering stunning panoramic views. You'll then travel through dense rainforest, past streams and waterfalls, and take in the beautiful scenery of the mountains. The route has some uphills and downhills and requires some stamina and acclimatization. However, when you reach the top of Lotus Hill, you will be stunned by the surrounding scenery, overlooking the spectacular scenery of Lantau Island and the ocean in the distance. After completing this section of the route, you can choose to return to the starting point or continue exploring other sections of the Phoenix Trail. The entire Phoenix Trail offers routes of varying difficulty and length, allowing you to choose based on your interests and abilities. No matter which section of the Phoenix Trail you choose to explore, you can enjoy Lantau's natural beauty, tranquility and rich ecology. Remember to bring appropriate equipment, enough water and food, and follow relevant safety guidelines to ensure your hiking trip is safe and enjoyable. #行山 #行山路综合 #行山好狠#行山路#行山游#香港 #香港好狠#狠卡 #行山好碰地 #行山游吧

I have labelled this hike as medium difficulty, as it incorporates both easy and difficult segements. This first part of the hike is an endless ascent from Tong Fuk Village, via the Catchwater, although it has steps which are easy to climb. The ascent brings takes you up to views of South Lantau; Tong Fuk Village, Cheung Sha and even Pui O! The path will bring you to Cheung Yan Shan (443 meters elevation), Ngau Tong Au (473 meters elevation), and down to Pak Kung Au (332 meters elevation). From here, you have a number of options. 1. Take a bus to Tung Chung/Mui Wo/Tai O/etc. 2. Walk down the Old Tung Chung Road to either San Shek Wan round-a-bout or Shek Mun Kap. 3. Walk along the trail labelled ‘Tong Fuk Catchwater’ and join back to the trail you ascended via earlier. 4. Take a DIFFICULT trail to 出水頂. This is for advanced hikers as the ground is very loose, very steep and there is little to stop you rolling down the hill. We opted for the fourth option (before we knew how dangerous it was)—it was definitely not suitable for the whole group, which consisted of two advanced hikers and one less confident hiker. However, it did offer some great views. Please choose your route carefully. Even if you opt for an easier option, the hike from Tong Fuk Village to Pak Kung Au is a good bit of exercise, and offers some nice views! Here are the statistics of our hike: • Moving Time: 3 hours 5 minutes • Average Pace: 21 minutes per kilometer • Elapsed Time: 3 hours 55 minutes • Elevation Gain: 792 meters • Maximum Elevation: 476 meters I hope you can use them to effectively plan out your hike.

#High Altitude Viewing #Local Tour #Star Writers Rush Rush Located at the southern tip of Lantau, Shek Lam Chau is not a popular viewing spot, but it is actually beautiful and if you like to stay away from the hustle and bustle, this is definitely the place for you. You might as well bring your girlfriend for a walk during the holidays, sit on the peak, dry a can of soda, and enjoy this tranquility and relaxation.

There are so many wonderful hikes on Lantau Island that you can do. Lantau Peak and sunset peak are the iconic ones that you have to do when in Hong Kong. Don’t forget about the other trails around Lantau Island though. There are many wonderful trails you can do that are not so busy. #lantau #hiking #explorehk #離島好去處

The original plan that day was to walk the Shek Pik Country Trail to Ngong Ping, but when we arrived at the Sai Gou Ya entrance, we saw many people going up, so we followed them up. As soon as we got up, we found that we couldn't turn back because it was very steep and it was too dangerous to go back. So I continued climbing carefully. While climbing, I sighed as Yang Wanli wrote: "Just entering the circle of thousands of mountains, one mountain is passed and another is blocked." This should be the situation. But I have no regrets, the deep ravines and valleys are extremely beautiful. I made it to the summit! Thank you for seeing the sea of ​​clouds! Many people can’t see it even after going there several times. It was sunset 🌇, clouds were rolling, the Temple of Heaven Buddha was looming, and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge was covered in silver, which was exciting. #Hiking#Check-in at the swimming pool#Good places to go in Hong Kong

#hongkong #buddhism if you are planning to visit Hong Kong I would definitely recommend you to go to the Victoria peak, promenade, some museums and parks, HOWEVER I'd say that you must spend at least half of a day here in Lantau. Not only giant Budda is impressive, but the view and nature as well. Grab some food with you if you don't like Chinese cuisine. There are no fancy restaurants, only authentic (which I prefer, but my girlfriend likes European food, so she was a bit disappointed with it) #happynewyear

After a year of lobbying by my good friends, I finally dared to go to Xigouyaling with them. I was scared for two days before the trip. A good friend told me that the scenery of Yishudong and Luohan Tower is excellent and not as difficult to reach as Xigouyaling, so he asked me to go there, and I was surprised again. After getting off at Ngong Ping Station, walk towards the Heart Sutra and the Forest. Route Ngong Ping > Famen Ancient Trail > Fengniaoji > Yishudong > Luohan Tower > Fengfeng > Fengweiji > Daowanshi River > Ngong Ping Transportation: Take bus No. 23 from Tung Chung MTR Station near Exit B and get off at the terminus "Ngong Ping" / Take bus or cable car back to Tung Chung in Ngong Ping Impressions: This route is full of unobstructed beautiful scenery, which is surprising. It requires a lot of climbing and physical strength, but I feel very happy and satisfied after completing it. Length | Time required: about six hours / 5.22km **Note: Both Phoenix Ridge and Phoenix Tail Ridge are steep and require climbing and physical strength. They are difficult routes and should be done according to one’s ability. It is recommended to be led by someone who is familiar with the route, and it is not suitable for novices. Please dress appropriately and bring adequate equipment such as gloves, hiking poles, as well as food and water. #like #relax #weekendtrip #trip #hiking #hikingrouterecommendation #hikingplaces #hikingtour #hkplaces #hkcheckin #hkcheckin
