High Junk Peak — Local services in Hong Kong

Overview Start up point near Mtr Beautiful Sai Kung Harbour view Be cautios about downhill steps

Gathered at Hang Hau mtr exit B at 8 am. Walked along Pui Shing Road for about 10 mins and turned right to Po Ning Road, you will see Boon Kin Village (半見村).

Entered into the village and walked uphill towards High Junk Peak. The path to the Peak is neither difficult nor dangerous. Near the peak, the path becomes narrower and you should be more cautious.

When you see the Peak, do not forget to take photos before proceeding. Along the trail, you will see the Harbour and bridge view of Tseung Kwan O and Sai Kung Sea view.

At the Peak, it will be cold becsuse of the strong wind chill effect. There are a lot of rocks near the High Junk Peak, good for photo shooting.

Great cautious must be taken when walking downhill as steps are made of rocks and stones. Different hight in step will increase the pressure on your knees. Furthermore, some steps are quite steep.

The overall trail will take about 3 hours to complete. You may exit to Lohas to take mte or Clear Water Bay road to...

Moderate to difficult hike for the beginner, depending what direction you come from, if you walk from Clear water bay it's definitely a Moderate hike, but you come from Tai Po Sai like I did( yes I walked all the way) it's definitely difficult, but all in all it was definitely worth it My intention was only to go to Miu Tsai Tun, but the nearer I got to High Junk Peak, the more I wanted to climb it, and yes, it was worth it, heading down from Junk towards Clear water bay was a steady incline and thankfully at a junction was a shaded seating area, I then decided to press on to Clear water bay 1st beach, just for a look, but the sea was a stunning and Clear blue, so unplanned!! and no swimming gear!!, decided to take the plunge and dive in!! Omg!! What a fantastic relief from what was a very long hike 17000 steps in 30 degree heat!! After a 40 minute swim and cool down I headed up into Clear water bay village, catching the 91 back to Tai Po Tsai, total time, with photographs and...

This is our go to hike. A good cardio blast but also something that can easily fit into a morning with the kids. We take the path up from Clearwater Bay Rd opposite the top of Sheung Sze Wan Village. The view at the top is stunning and the scramble at the approach to the peak is not too demanding but gives you a good adventurous feeling. I would avoid it in the wet, particularly with children, but in dry weather a great hike and a good second step to a steep climb if you have already tried high west on the island and want something a bit more authentic. Where you are heading back down to Clearwater Bay Road after your hike for a bus/minibus/taxi I would recommend walking down the mountain bike trail for an absolutely cracking view of the bay on the Clearwater side. If you’re feeling like your legs want a bit more of a trundle, head along the path in the direction of Man Kung Uk and it’s an extra 90mins of trail to work up...
