The MacLehose Trail
Hong Kong hiking, these 10 routes are enough‼️ ||| People who don't understand will be very puzzled! Why does Hong Kong, a city where every inch of land is precious, have so many mountains to climb? Actually, Hong Kong is surrounded by the sea on three sides. Each hiking trail has its own unique features, and the coastline is very long. At the same time, there are two "forests" with many stunning scenic views. This time we recommend these 10 hiking routes. Get ready and you can set off!
