[2025 Hong Kong Attraction] Travel Guide for Devil's Peak (Updated May)

📍Address: Section 3 of Wilson Trail, Yau Tong 🏖️Environment: Stunning sea view 💰Cost per person: Free 💞Recommended reason: Beginner-friendly hiking route After resupplying at Yau Tong Station, you can lightly pack and head to Devil's Mountain. Despite its name, Devil's Mountain is not as treacherous as it sounds. It takes just over an hour to reach the peak. From Ko Chiu Road, head up the vehicle road to Tseung Kwan O Cemetery, then turn left to go up the mountain. After climbing several hundred steps and passing through a dim mountain path, just when you feel like taking a break, you'll see a bright and open viewing spot where you can overlook the entire Tseung Kwan O Cemetery and Tseung Kwan O Bridge. Another path leads to the wartime battery ruins, and continuing up will bring you to the top viewing platform. Leaning against the stone wall, you can gaze out at the endless sky and sea, taking in the breathtaking views.

#NewYear2024 Seizing the tail end of the New Year holiday, I chose a relaxing hiking route with my friends to exercise 💪🏻⛰️, We chose the "Devil's Hill" in Yau Tong. From Yau Tong MTR Station, take Exit A2 towards Lei Yue Mun Village. Along the driveway to the Tseung Kwan O Chinese Permanent Cemetery, Walk up to the entrance of Wilson Trail (red-brown stairs). It takes 20-30 minutes to climb the stairs to the Devil's Mountain elevation column. When you reach the top of the mountain, you can enjoy the view of both sides of Victoria Harbour. If you plan the time and weather well, it is a good place to enjoy the sunrise and sunset🥰 In addition to the natural scenery, there are several former military facilities on the top of the mountain. It has been rated as a Grade II historical building and is worth a visit! 👍🏻 * Devil's Hill is also known as Fortress Hill (but it is not the Fortress Hill in North Point) *Be safe when hiking, and remember to protect the environment and keep the place clean😊 #NewYearGoodPlaces2024 #HongKongHikingRoutes #HongKongHikingGoodPlaces #Devil'sHill #FortressHill #YauTong

Historical area with ruins

There are multiple exits from the Devil's Peak. One of them is to extend your hiking journey to Lei Yue Mun villages. Getting back to the starting point of Wilson Trail and then turn left. Walking down along the concrete road, you will find the little path to the villages in Lei Yue Mun. It is a quiet green path with remains of previous villages appear in the mid of the route. And when you come across with the new ones and the farmland, it means you are arriving soon. Lei Yue Mun (鯉魚門) is consisted of a few villages with houses built along the seaside and also up to the hills. - Sam Ka Tsuen (三家村) - Ma Pui Tsuen (馬背村) - Ma San Tsuen (媽山村) - Ma Wan Tsuen (馬環村)

I have introduced so many cost-effective hiking routes in Hong Kong Island before, why not today let me introduce you to a high-value hiking route in Kowloon 😃, this route is easy to walk and has beautiful scenery to see, perfect for friends who like to take pictures 📸, it is located in Yau Tong's Devil's Hill 🤗 As for why Devil Mountain is called Devil Mountain😯? Rest assured, the reason why Devil Mountain has this name is not because it is related to ghost👻, but because more than a hundred years ago in the era of rampant pirates⚔️, Devil Mountain was often occupied by pirates🚩, and these pirates were called "Devil😈", over time called this mountain Devil Mountain Suggested tour route👇 Tiu Keng Leng --> Tiu Keng Leng Water Supply Reservoir --> Section 3 of Wei Yi Sin Trail --> Devil's Cave --> Devil's Hill Prism --> Song Fu Fortress --> Devil's Hill Fortress --> Yau Tong So what’s so special about Devil’s Mountain😚? Sunrise and sunset are so beautiful🌅 Devil's Mountain can watch the sunset 🌅 I believe many friends have heard, but do you know that Devil's Mountain can see the sunrise 😆? The most spectacular fort site 💣 There are actually many fortress sites in Hong Kong💣, such as Cape Collinson Fort, Stanley Fort, Cape Cod Fort, and Mount Morrison Fort, but they are usually built in two. When it comes to the largest fort site, it is Devil's Hill😌. There are a total of 4 groups of fort sites in Devil's Hill, namely Devil's Hill Fort, Song Fortress, Devil's Hill Fort, and Pokfulam Fort Devil's Cave🦇 This route will also pass through the Devil's Cave on the way, and Cheung Chau's Cheung Po Tsai Cave is very similar, I believe it is a place used by pirates ⚔️ to hide The best value for money in Kowloon 👍 Devil's Hill is one of the few places in Hong Kong where you can see the sunrise and sunset🌅 at the same time, and compared to more than 900 meters of Tai Mo Shan and Phoenix Hill⛰️, Devil's Hill is only 222 meters high Transportation: You can turn right at Exit A of Tiu Keng Leng Station and walk along Tsui Leng Road until you see the location a little before the roundabout is the starting point of this journey 😉 Want to know more good places to visit in Hong Kong?

This time I want to introduce you to this novice-level hiking route, which is Devil's Hill in Yau Tong. The departure point can be from Yau Tong MTR Station, this route is only 5 kilometers long and takes about 2 hours to complete! This road is in good condition, the up and down is not very undulating, and you can enjoy the scenery of Lei Yue Mun and explore the abandoned moat along the way.

However, since this route passes through Tseung Kwan O Cemetery, you should try to avoid taking this route over Ching Ming or Chung Yeung. I recommend this easy and easy hiking route to everyone! #LocalTravel #HikingRoute Recommendations

"Devil's Mountain" sounds like an adventure place in fairy tales, but I never thought that there is a mountain called Devil's Mountain in reality! The official name of Devil's Hill is Fortress Hill, located between Yau Tong and Tiu Keng Leng, with an altitude of 222 meters! Devil's Hill is a place full of historical traces. There you can find abandoned forts and dilapidated bunkers. You can feel the history of Hong Kong while hiking! It is said that more than a hundred years ago, Devil's Mountain was called "Chicken Mountain". At that time, the area was occupied by pirates who often robbed merchant ships. It is said that the title "Devil" was used to describe the pirates at that time. Over time, the mountain was named "Devil's Mountain"! Later, Devil's Hill became a government military base, so the official name was changed from "Chicken Hill" to "Paotai Hill"! Devil's Hill has important strategic value. It controls the entrance to the eastern waterway of Victoria Harbour and has a distant view of the eastern part of Hong Kong Island. Therefore, in 1898, after the British leased the New Territories, they turned Devil's Hill into a military stronghold and built a series of defense facilities. The Devil's Hill Battery consists of the Devil's Hill Fort, Gough Battery and Pottinger Battery. The Devil's Hill military facilities have now been listed as a Grade II historical building! Transportation to Devil's Mountain: This time, the Devil's Hill hiking route will depart directly from Exit A1 of Yau Tong MTR Station, so there is no need to take other means of transportation! Note: Although the official name of Devil's Hill is Fortress Hill, the location is not at Fortress Hill Station! Summary of walking route: Yau Tong Station > Devil's Hill Fort > Gough Fort > Yau Tong Station (return along the original route) If you don’t want to go hiking too early like me, you might as well choose a short and easy route. This route is very suitable for night owls who want to hike but don’t want to walk a lot or for a long time! Small thoughts: The road from Yau Tong to Devil's Hill is very easy and relaxing. Not only can you see the urban scenery of Yau Tong, Tseung Kwan O, the eastern part of Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula, but also military relics such as the Gough Battery and Devil's Hill Fort. You can also watch the sunset! This time I preferred to visit historical sites rather than hike. If I had known, I would have set off earlier and included Pottinger Fort and Mao Wu Tsai Fort in the itinerary! But it may not be so easy then😂 #localtourism #hk hiking spots #hk places to go #outdoor spots #devil's hill #devil's hill hiking #devil's hill battery #military monuments

This time Uncle wants to introduce Devil's Hill, located between Yau Tong and Tiu Keng Leng. The whole climbing section is about 5 kilometers and takes about two hours. Transportation is quite convenient. #wintertravel #countrysidegoodplaces #localtravel

[Devil's Mountain] God continues to make beauty 🥰, and then take three children out for a walk and sunbathe. This time I hiked the low-level Devil's Mountain, which is actually my third time up😆. The route I chose will be a little tiring, more stairs, more exercise 💪🏻. . . Yau Tong - Lei Yue Mun - Devil's Hill (Fortress Hill), cut back to the Chinese Forever Cemetery driveway along the road and walk back to Yau Tong. From Yau Tong Station, walk towards Lei Yue Mun, about 15 minutes to arrive, see large archways, through the seafood street🐟, by the way to buy souvenirs, I love "Nian Xiang Yuen" pork dried, walnuts, next door "Shao Xiang Yuen" and "Rui Xiang Yuen" are good 👍🏻, bought freshly baked chicken cake. Several bakeries have their own customers, buy some from each one😋! After shopping, we officially set off, through Ma Wan Village, saw the signpost of "Wei Yi Sin Trail", and started to step onto the continuous stairs. Although the stairs are quite long, they are neatly and easy to walk. Walk slowly for about half an hour. After arriving at the road, the rest of the way becomes a full ramp. We mainly climbed the Devil's Mountain Moat on the top of the mountain, with a 360-degree view of the sea, which made us feel relaxed and happy😌. Sit, enjoy the breeze, and take photos here. On the way back, go down the ramp. When you reach the road, turn right and go down. You can return to Yau Tong Station! Including buying souvenirs, taking pictures of the sea view📸, the whole process can be completed within 3 hours. If you want to relax a little, you can walk in the opposite direction to me, first from Gao Chau Road, turn onto the Chinese Forever Cemetery driveway, and go up to join Wai Yi Sin Trail III. When you leave, descend back to Lei Yue Mun from the stairs. * There is no shade along the way, if the sun is in the sky will be more hard 🌞, please note. #Devil's Hill #Fortress Hill #hiking #hiking #kidshiking #familyday #outdoor places #holiday places #outdoor activities #LocalTour

Address: Section 3 of Wilson Trail, Yau Tong Environment/Facilities: Historical site Features: Ideal for a short hiking trip with the whole family Price per person: Free Rating: 9/10 The official name is Devil's Peak, also known as Devil Mountain among locals. Located on the outskirts of the urban area near Yau Tong and Lei Yue Mun, this mountain was historically significant for guarding ships entering Victoria Harbor. During World War II, it served as a fortress for fierce battles against Japanese forces. After the war, it lost its purpose and became abandoned, offering a cool and tranquil atmosphere. Visiting during sunset adds a special charm to the experience. If driving, you can park at the residential area at the foot of the mountain. From there, it's a 10-minute walk to the entrance, followed by a 30-minute hike to the summit. The highlight is the stunning view of the entire Tseung Kwan O Cross Bay Bridge, along with panoramic views of East Hong Kong Island and East Kowloon. The scenery is truly exceptional.

The route starts from Tiu King Ling station to Yau Tong, through the Wilson Trail Section 3. ✨️Reasons to go - Mostly flat and stairs, where the difficulty is low, yet you can enjoy a fabulous view of junk bay and kowloon bay (+ a glimpse of Victoria Habour) - It took 2 hours only - You can explore the historical site that was formerly a WW2 battlefield #hiking #hongkong #devilspeak

💨Autumn wind, and hiking season, I recently started hiking 🥾 and camping ⛺, if you want to recommend hiking routes and camping sites, you can DM me. Today I recommend a hiking route where you can easily see the historical ruins and see the unbeatable sea view. From Yau Tong MTR Station Exit A2, start up Devil's Hill, go to Song Fu Fortress 💣 to take pictures and enjoy the views on both sides of the Victoria Harbor 🌇. [The origin of the name Devil's Mountain ⛰️] Devil's Mountain was a pirate's lair during the Qing Dynasty. Since the nearby villagers regarded pirates as devils😈, the mountain where pirates gathered was called "Devil's Mountain". During the British colonial period, Devil's Hill was selected by the British army as one of the military strongholds, building fortresses 💣 fortresses, etc. Some people also called "Devil's Hill" as "Fortress Hill" [photo spot] Song Fortress 💣 Built in 1898, the British Army had two 9.2-inch large forts at the Song Fortress. Now the 2 large forts have been moved early and the remaining cannon beds are listed as Grade II listed buildings. The military bastion at the top of Devil's Mountain 🛤 Built in 1914, it has been around for over 100 years. The Fortress platform offers 270-degree sea views, with Shau Kei Wan up close and Tseung Kwan O in the distance. ⛰ Quarry 🪨 The popular wedding photo location in recent years, easily take a characteristic ruin feel. Lei Yue Mun mural 🎨 The colorful murals match the sea view🌊, pleasing to the eye, relaxing, and one of the must-visit locations. Attention⚠️ The first 15-20 minutes from Yau Tong to Lei Yue Mun Estate uphill is the hardest and steepest of the hiking route, be more persistent ❤️. #Hiking Route Recommendation #Yautang #Devil Mountain Hiking #Devil Mountain Fort #Lei Yue Mun Ore #novicehiking

Hiking the mountain to know that Hong Kong has so many historical ruins, worth a visit, more thanks to the people who discovered the route 👍🌹🥰 In addition to the first stop Owl Rock attraction, the others are fortresses and moats, and with the sea view, is a good route, especially the end of the 3 seaside moats and high view of Lei Yue Mun quarry panoramic 👍👍 Although it looks like an easy and simple route, there are two places to note 1️⃣ Owl Ridge is actually only 340 meters away, but it is quite slippery, rainy days should not go to 2️⃣ The last bunker down to Lei Yue Mun Quarry, if you are afraid of heights, please do not go down to the quarry here💪 s (About 5.5 km / slow walk 4 hours 30 minutes with photo break 👉 including 50 minutes stay at Devil's Mountain 😅) #YauTong #Lei Yue Mun #San Ka Tsuen #store #dogdog #sunday #photography #xt30 #fujifilm #fujifilmxt30 #35mm #f16 #35mm# Photography

#GreenTourism It was my first time hiking, and I saw someone promoting the etiquette of eco-friendly hiking on Devil Mountain. This concept is quite good, encouraging hikers to protect nature while having fun, and reminding them to cherish the land they have now. Cherishing and protecting the environment is the starting point of knowing how to have fun👍 #GreenTravel#DevilMountain#LocalTours#Hiking#EnvironmentalProtection#GoodPlacesInHongKong#YauTong#Hiking

On the way up Devil's Hill from Lei Yue Mun Village in Yau Tong, there is a hidden little paradise for prayer. It is a natural flat land surrounded by colorful stones. There are golden verses on each stone. In this small land of natural golden verse stones, you can't help but stop and recite a Bible verse before going up the mountain. During this trip, you can hike to Tiu Keng Leng. The hike is measured by the MTR distance, which is satisfying. #GreenTourism #GreenTravel #LocalTourism #Hiking #DevilShan #Lei Yue Mun
