A hike full of fun if you are with the right company.. Very steep but not very high compare to other hills. Must wear a good grip shoes, bring some gloves too to avoid hurting your hands holding the ropes upward and downwards. Getting there is easy. Just take mtr SOUTH HORIZON LINE, alight at LEI TUNG Station, take EXIT B, find the 2 YELLOW BOOTH at the side of the bus terminus near Mc Donald's, just take the stairs up, KEEP ON YOUR LEFT as there are few set of stairs to go up, from there you can start ur ascends. After you reach Ap Lei Pai, (the small island next to Mt. Jonhston) you can opt to take a sampan(small motorized boat) back to either Ap lei chau Main rd or Aberdeen Praya rd.,.. will costs you $40 to $50 per pax, or you can walk back to where you started. Its a very short distance actually, just an hour one way without stops, but as we took lots of pics and eat snacks after the descend. It took us 3 hours to finish one way and get back to Ap Lei chau! Hope this can help u....

Bring a pair of gloves!!!

It's a adventurous hiking spot in Hong Kong island. The location itself is easy to access from MTR. Good restaurants and shop at the beginning. The intensity went up really quick you start the route as the hill itself is very steep. You will need to use your hands to climb up and keep your balance. The scenery in the route is very good. It will take sound 1.5hour to reach the lighthouse.

We paid $40 for the returning boat back to...

完全係嚇親寶寶行山路線 !不過如果喜歡行山挑戰,是一條相當豐富的行山路線。開始行已經係陡峭的山路,危險地方會有繩相助,行程很短,約20-30 分鐘已到山頂,要行到燈塔,必須落山行過去連島沙洲,落山的路是又斜又多沙石仔路,我一邊落邊腳仔軟。 去到沙洲已經近黃昏,所以冇再上第二個山去燈塔。朋友沿海岸線行咗一陣,諗住睇吓靚景影吓相,點知變咗玉桂山綑邊行,好靚嘅黃昏海岸線,真係一步一驚心🥶🥶🥶 唔夠時間退路,唯有向前挑戰!😎 A very challenging Hong Kong hiking trail, the mountain is not easy, but the coast is more difficult. Though hiking along the coast is adventurous and challenging, it’s pretty rewarding to appreciate the stunning cliff and landscape. We can’t go back, just keep forward. A memorable hiking experience, I want to rate 5 stars, but it is an advanced trail not for beginner, so I conclude a as 4 stars spot.
