Conquering Fears on Dragon's Back: A Solo Hike to Remember

#gohiking On my last day in Hong Kong, I decided to tackle the Dragon's Back Trail alone - a first for me! Despite some initial fear, I laced up my trusty Onitsuka sneakers and embarked on the adventure. The weather was perfect, and the views were absolutely breathtaking! The ridge walk was exhilarating, with the mountain ranges stretching out before me like a dragon's spine. I felt empowered with each step, my fears melting away with the stunning scenery. This solo hike was a testament to pushing past comfort zones and embracing the unknown. Dragon's Back, you've left me with an unforgettable experience!

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!
