Conquer the Ridge: Hiking Hong Kong’s Stunning Dragon’s Back

#chinatrip #hongkong #travel #thingstodo #hiking #mountain #dragonsback If you’re looking for breathtaking views and a refreshing escape from the city, the Dragon’s Back Trail in Hong Kong is an absolute must. This moderate hike takes you along a scenic ridge with panoramic views of Shek O, Big Wave Bay, and the South China Sea—a perfect reward for your efforts. Walking along the winding path, I felt a sense of serenity and adventure, with the cool sea breeze making the climb even more enjoyable. The trail is easily accessible from Shau Kei Wan MTR (take bus 9 to To Tei Wan), and the entire trek takes around 2 to 3 hours. Finish your journey with a dip at Big Wave Bay Beach or enjoy a seafood feast at Shek O. Whether you’re a nature lover or just need a break from the city, this hike is an unforgettable experience!

We are traveling because we need it. This was our second day in Hong Kong and still haven’t decided yet where to go though we already have an itinerary. Thanks to Justelle for sharing his Hong Kong quick escapade (super budget-friendly literally!). Public transportation in Hong Kong is superb! HOW TO GET DRAGON'S BACK 1. From TST Station ride MTR bound to Central (Red Lane) and then drop to Admiralty Station. 2. From Admiralty Station connect to Chai Wan (Blue lane - 4.5 HKD) and then drop at Shaw Kei Wan Station and follow Exit A3.  3. Take bus 9 at Shau Kei Wan Bus Terminal to To Tei Wan, Shek O Road. (Jump off) I brought an extra shirt and swimwear because based on my research Stanley Beach is near Shek O Road. But due to cold weather, we decided to go home instead. The driver will notify you when you are already in the jump-off area. Travel time from Shau Kei Wan to Shek O Road is about 30 minutes.  You can visit Stanley Beach after your hike at least to refresh there. In our scenario, we weren't able to visit the beach since it's already late, and also the temperature in Hong Kong dropped to 14'c. (Please refrain from eating or drinking in any public transportation (bus, ferry, and train) unless you want to pay their fine. Eating and drinking in any public transportation are strictly prohibited.) #dragonsback #hongkong #hongkongmountain  #seasidephotoguide#naturalwonders
