Wilson Trail — Attraction in Hong Kong

We only walked a short part of the trail. We caught bus no 6 from City Hall and got off at the road leading to the Wing Nai CHUNG reservoir to Repulse Bay. The weather was cool, windy and wet, but it was beautiful. I'm sure the views would have been amazing if the weather was fine, but there is nothing like the damp earth smells of wet weather hiking. The way to the top is clearly marked. There are quite a lot of steps, but nothing compared to the steps on the way down. It would be a very steep hike, but on steps, if you came from Repulse Bay. At this time of year (February) the small indications of Spring are magical. Repulse Bay has plenty of trendy little bars and restaurants in front of the beach, if you are hungry afterwards, and the connections back to town are very good. Highly recommended.
