[2025 Hong Kong Attraction] Travel Guide for Kai Kung Leng (Updated May)

Transportation: The most convenient way to get to Hong Kong from Shenzhen is to take the high-speed train or take the subway directly to Tuen Mun Station or Tai Wo Station on the same day. From Tuen Mun Station or Tai Wo Station, you can take bus route 75K or 307 to Kai Kung Leng Bus Terminus. Travel suggestions: Start early, the bus ride in the morning takes about 30-45 minutes. After getting off the bus, it takes 10-15 minutes to walk to the peak. Stop along the way to enjoy the scenery, and walk carefully on the hiking trail. You can bring drinking water and snacks for replenishment. There will be more people on the later buses when going down the mountain, and the traffic will be more crowded during the rush hour. Other precautions: The mountain may be closed in bad weather (strong wind or heavy rain), please pay attention to the forecast. Wear a safety helmet up and down the mountain, the road conditions are steep, be careful. Leave enough time for photos at the Kai Kung Leng viewing platform. I hope these suggestions can help you! Have fun at Kai Kung Leng.

Cocks Nest is a famous sunset hiking route in Hong Kong. The 360-degree unobstructed ridge overlooks the Nam Sang Wai Fishing Pond and reflects the beauty of the sunset. In autumn and winter, the Miscanthus grass blooms, making it another popular check-in spot. However, the steep ups and downs and the lack of tree shades require more physical effort than on other mountains. In July 2022, someone died of heat stroke at Jigongling, so you should consider the weather before climbing. Jigongling Sunset Hiking Route🌇 Qiaotou ➔ Luotianding ➔ Daluotian ➔ Jigongshan ➔ Fengji Township Starting transportation: • 77K bus, get on at Sheung Shui Plaza and get off at Qiaotou Station Transportation at the terminal: • Minibus No. 603 - Get on at Fung Kat Heung and head to Yuen Long Distance: about 6.5 km Duration: 3.5-4.5 hours (including rest and photo taking) There are no supply points in Jigongling, so you need to prepare everything before setting off. Get off at Kiu Tau Station and walk towards the "Welcome to Yuen Long" sign at the rear of the bus. Be careful when crossing the road, turn left and take the stairs to pass the large water pipe. Go up the handrail stairs. The entrance to Jigongling is along the right trail at a high point, which is also the last shaded spot along the entire journey. The entrance is hidden, so it is advisable to check the offline map location. There are what appear to be trenches in the high grass at the beginning of the section, so you must pay attention to the road conditions and avoid stepping into the pits. After about 5 minutes, Jiaotong Trail opens up on the right and the road becomes clearer, heading towards Jigongling. Maintaining the upward incline for nearly two hours puts a lot of strain on the calves, so it is a good idea to use hiking poles for assistance. Even if you climb Jigongling in autumn, you will sweat profusely, so you should not climb too fast at the beginning. #hiking #hiking route recommendation #hiking spots #weekend trip #trip #like #check-in #check-in hotspots #hongkong #hongkong spots #hongkong check-in

#Recently a little wish came true💗 #Watch the sunset on the mountain #Hiking route not suitable for young children Once I happened to see a huge orange sunset🌄 in the car I always wanted to enjoy it again with my family 👨‍👩‍👦 Fireson's father said it's better to go up the mountain and watch the sunset. Find an unobstructed hiking route. So we went to #Kickongling located near Kam Tin We set off from #EnggiTang. This route was a bit difficult for me. The route is all a bit slippery #sandland. So #suitable shoes and #hiking poles are very useful. There are no big trees to cover Chi Kong Leng. The view is 10 points open. There is a good view without having to walk very high🌱 With limited stamina, we decided to rest and wait for the sunset at the signpost of Chicken Hill. It took about an hour and a half to get from the starting point to this location. Return along the way, so the whole journey takes about 3 hours. To climb this small peak, There is first conquering a small slope that requires both hands and feet. Xiao Huozi can handle it completely by himself. I was able to get on it no matter how hard I tried😜 The clouds were a bit thick that day. Fortunately, we finally saw the sunset when we were preparing to return 🥰 Nature is really worthy of admiration 💕 There are too many things in the world that are unsatisfactory, just work hard to survive. Since it's already sunset, we have to hurry up👣 But the sky won't turn dark all at once. We were probably the last half hour, too. Only need to use the light of the phone to assist. Next time I hike to watch the sunset, I should bring back lighting equipment💡 Everyone’s hiking experience and abilities vary. Choose the route that suits you 😉 #KickongLing #country #hiking #nature #parent-child #bighands #hongkonggoodplaces #starwritersApril flash

#hiking route recommendation #countryside #local tour Recently, I walked with my friends to Kei Kong Leng located in Niu Tam Mei, Yuen Long. Although it is not high (about 500 meters), because the nearby plains are unobstructed, you can see beautiful views in the southeast and northwest. Route: Feng Ji Township - Kai Kong Leng - Ta Shek Lake Distance: About 8 km Duration: 3.5 hours Difficulty: 8/10 View: 9/10 Notes: Medium and high-end routes, many up and down slopes and floating sand and gravel roads, beginners should do what they can.

#hikingrouterecommendation Sheung Shui Railway Station → 76k → Fengji Township → Jigong Mountain → Jigong Ridge → Luotianding → Qiaotou 77k → Sheung Shui Railway Station The mountains are continuous and ups and downs. The ridges extend to both sides and give birth to sub-ridges. The ridges give rise to ridges. The momentum is extraordinary. People can't help but sigh: there are so many beautiful mountains and rivers. From the top, you can have a panoramic view of Kam Tin, Pat Heung and Deep Bay. Since there are no shade trees along the road, it is better to go in spring and autumn. #suburbangoodplace #hikinggoodplace

The first time up Jigong Ridge, a route that requires a lot of physical strength, spans two peaks, Daluotian and Jigongshan.

This time Uncle wants to introduce the chicken ridge, located in the northern part of the New Territories, belongs to a more difficult route, the total length of about 7 kilometers, we started in Feng Kei Township that day, the journey round trip almost 5 hours. It should be noted that there are no shade areas throughout this journey, so use sunscreen. Moreover, the ups and downs are very large, which requires certain physical fitness for climbers. It is definitely not recommended for beginners to try this route! And if you come to watch the sunset, be sure to bring lighting tools, because there are no street lights along the way, and there are wild dogs coming out of Fengji Township. #wintertravel #countrysidegoodplaces #localtravel

#Good Places to Go in the Countryside #Winter Travel Notes Many people like to take photos and check in with the Miscanthus. I recently discovered that there are a lot of Miscanthus in Jigongling for everyone to check in 😍. However, the difficulty of this hiking trail is 4 stars (the highest is 5 stars), so it may be more difficult for beginners. But it's all worth it just to check in with the Miscanthus.

In November, when everyone flocks to Tai Tung Shan to see the mangroves🌾 My friends and I challenged the difficulty😎 Walk up the 90% exposed Ke Kong Ridge🐔 We take a minibus to the starting point of Feng Ji Township in Yuen Long, and walk up the sandstone and mangrove under the blue sky and white clouds to the Ke Kong Ridge🌤 Reminder, because there are many 🚴🏼‍♀️🚵🏻‍♂️ traces in Chi Kong Ridge, resulting in a certain danger of going up and down the mountain 🙉 It is strongly recommended that friends with sufficient hiking equipment and enough experience in hiking 4-star trails should go to the challenge 😊 #KickongLing #hiking #countryside

Jigongling is a famous hiking route in Hong Kong, a hiking spot full of challenges and beautiful scenery. For those who love hiking, every step here is full of surprises and challenges. The unobstructed ridge here overlooks the Nanshengwei Fishing Pond and the Shenzhen area, providing a broad view, and the silver grass blooms in autumn and winter. During the climb, the first thing that catches your eye is the green grassland. The occasional rocks on the ridge make you feel the magnificence of nature. However, the road is not flat. The continuous upslope makes people breathless, especially when approaching the top of the mountain, the slope is so steep that people can't help but doubt whether they can hold on to the end. Although I felt physically tired during the climb, every time I looked back and saw the road I had walked and the spectacular scenery around me, I would feel a sense of accomplishment. Although the highest point of Jigongling is not particularly high, its unique terrain and spectacular view make people feel an unparalleled sense of grandeur. In addition, although the road conditions here are a bit bad, especially in areas with floating sand and gravel, this also adds to the excitement of hiking. Hiking in Jigongling is a challenge to your physical strength. The route is long, about 3.5 hours or more, and the ups and downs are steep and there is no shade. The physical exertion is higher than that of other mountains. It is recommended to bring enough water. #HongKongHiking

Located within the Lam Tsuen Country Park, Kai Kung Leng prides the highest peak in northwest New Territories after Tai Mo Shan. With its highest peak at 585 meters, the mountain range provides an exceptional opportunity to view the landscape of northern and northwestern New Territories. Embrace wide-open views throughout this hike. Kai Kung Leng, meaning “the rooster mountain range” in Chinese, had another name as Kwai Kok Shan in the ancient records on Hong Kong. “Kwai” refers to the laurel trees that grew abundantly in this mountain range. “Kok,” meaning angles, refers to the two angular mountain tops. In the ancient books, Kwai Kok Shan was the name for the whole mountain range. The taller eastern summit was Tai Lo Tin, and the western lower peak was Kai Kung Shan; together they were known as Kwai Kok Shan. The Tang’s of Kam Tin believe that this mountain range is the origin of the clan’s good feng shui, the ancestral dragon that blesses the clan. The good fortunes flow through the rolling ranges to benefit the Tang villages in the low plains. We ascended right away when we reached the entrance of the trail. Even at mid-range we saw all of Kam Tin and Yuen Long in the southwest. It felt like we could reach out and touch those human settlements on our fingertips. This scenery keeps me grounded in a realistic perspective on Hong Kong. Hong Kong is a well-developed city, heavily populated even in the rural areas, with never-ending human footprints on its terrain. But in the mountains we see the mountain ranges rolling to eternity, a view so grand that the human footprints are dwarfed, perhaps into a humility that reflects human beings’ true position in the created order. I would say this hike at Kai Kung Leng tops one of the toughest hikes I have done so far. Quite a number of experienced hikers have ranked it 4 stars out of 5. The mountain range enables exceptional views because there is no vegetation throughout the hike. The small trees that we saw here and there would not have provided the shades for cooling in case someone comes down with a heat stroke. Therefore, I advise against taking this trail during summertime. #kaikungleng #kaikungshan #hongkonghiking #yuenlong #newterritories #mountain #mountainview #china

Tsz Gong Ling is located in Sha Tin, Hong Kong. It is a hiking route less than half an hour's drive from the Futian Port. On Sundays, we lead a group to this mountain range, known as the Hong Kong version of Wugong Mountain. The route is very easy, and the fun of the mountains and fields lies in the different scenery you can experience on different routes. You can see the bustling skyscrapers of Shenzhen in the distance, and the tranquility of the traditional Yuen Long villages of Hong Kong up close. In addition, there are large rocks and meadows stretching for 2-3 km along the ridgeline. It is indeed a picture of the fusion of city and nature. The weather on the day of departure was not very good, but it saved us from the pain of being exposed to the sun on the ridgeline. This route has no supplies along the way, with a total length of about 7.54 km and an elevation gain of less than 700 m. It is considered the closest and easiest route on the border between Hong Kong and Shenzhen. The highest altitude is 564 m, and the total climb for the day is about 604 m.

There is not much scenery in the first half of the reverse crossing. The closer you get to this side, the better the scenery. So if you just want to take pictures, you can directly take the novice route. If you like hiking, you can go the other way. ✔️Both routes allow you to take photos of the sunset over Shenzhen Bay. The sunset is near Fengji Township. ✔️Remember to refill your water tank. There are one or two convenience stores at the foot of the mountain. There is no place selling water on the mountain. At least 2L of water is needed. If you are using water buffalo, you need to refill it. ✔️Remember to choose a good day, but there are no big trees to block the sun, but the wind on the mountain is very strong, so it won't be so hot when you get there ✔️The beginner route can climb to the first iron pillar 368, and a little further ahead is the mountaintop grassland. You can turn back after taking pictures.

The mountaintop grassland that can be reached in 40 minutes from Shenzhen is so beautiful that it makes you cry I thought the Ngong Ping Grasslands in Hong Kong were beautiful enough, but when I went to Jigongling, I discovered that it was even more like Wugong Mountain. The grasslands and mountain peaks are stacked one after another, and every shot you take is a vast expanse of grassland. It only takes 40 minutes by bus to Futian Port, which is definitely worth a visit.

The road is quite congested at the beginning, but it will be much easier to walk when you reach the grassland vegetation area. Downhill route Walk straight along the grassland hillside and you will reach Fengji Township.

At noon, there is no backlight, so any camera position is suitable. At sunset in the evening, the light is soft, so you can take more stunning photos. Tips: During the climb, you should prepare enough water (1.5L or more) and food to fill your stomach. Taste. ② When hiking on rainy days, you need to bring waterproof equipment, rain boots, jackets, etc. It was raining when I was hiking this time, and the road was difficult to walk on, so I specially brought a three-in-one jacket. The waterproof, scratch-resistant and wear-resistant fabric saved me a lot of trouble. When taking photos on the top of the mountain, wearing a windbreaker will make the photos look better. The temperature dropped when going down the mountain, so I put on the liner to keep warm.

If you are also a lazy hiker, it is recommended that you return here and have a cup of authentic Hong Kong-style Yuanyang. 🥰The total length is 7.8 kilometers, and the whole journey takes about 5-6 hours ⚠️There is no shelter throughout the journey, please remember to protect yourself from the sun and bring enough drinking water

Kuk Po Keng, known as the 'Wugong Mountain of Hong Kong', features vast alpine meadows that, along with the suburban Hong Kong and Shenzhen city SKYLINE, offer stunning views. There is mobile signal throughout the journey, and the hiking difficulty is not too high, making it less stressful for beginners. Route: Futian Port - Yuen Long - Fung Kat Heung Road Entrance - Kuk Po Keng Yuen Long Section - Kuk Po Keng Sheung Shui Section - Sheung Shui - Luohu Port. Note: I didn't follow the recommended route from Futian Port directly to the mountain. Instead, I went to Yuen Long market to eat and replenish before taking an Uber to the Fung Kat Heung trailhead. Duration: 11:30-18:15, the whole hiking journey took about seven hours. Tips: 1. There's a lot of grass, and the mountain grass is sharp, so protect your legs from being scratched by the leaves. 2. Protect yourself from mosquitoes and insects, and be cautious around grass piles as there may be snakes and other creatures. 3. Bring enough water, but as there are no trash bins on the mountain, please take your water bottles and trash with you. 4. Be sure to apply sunscreen, even if it feels cooler on the mountain. I applied sunscreen once but still got sunburned. 5. The descent towards Sheung Shui and Fanling is not easy, and the interval between 77K buses is quite long after coming down the mountain. 6. After descending, minibuses only accept cash, so remember to exchange for Hong Kong dollars. 7. The highest altitude is 574 meters, with an ascent of about 500 meters.

I've come across many posts about Jigongling recently and decided to check it out for myself. The place is breathtakingly beautiful, with a vast primitive mountaintop prairie and overlapping grassy peaks. The lush greenery is extensive and intricately interwoven. Jigongling in Hong Kong's Yuen Long can be reached from Shenzhen's Futian Port by taking a minibus for about 30 minutes to the foot of the mountain. It's definitely worth a visit!!! 📍Location: Jigongling, Hong Kong 📷: a7R5 & 24105/F4.0 🧢: CAMEL 🎫Ticket: Free 🕐Opening Hours: All day →To Jigongling Option 1: Minibus route - Take minibus 75 from Futian Port_Lok Ma Chau Bus Station to Fung Kat Heung Road junction (western entrance of the mountain) Option 2: Subway route - Take the East Rail Line from Futian Port to Lok Ma Chau~Sheung Shui Station, then transfer to minibus 77K at Kau Tau Station (eastern entrance of the mountain) ←From Jigongling Option 1: Take minibus 76K from Fung Kat Heung Bus Station to Shape Point 1 Bus Station, then transfer to B1 to Lok Ma Chau Terminus (western exit of the mountain) Option 2: From Kau Tau Bus Station, take 77k to Shek Wu Hui Post Office, then transfer to the subway at Sheung Shui Station, which is one stop away from Lok Ma Chau (western exit of the mountain) Option 3: Take minibus 602 to stop 60 on Castle Peak Road Yuen Long section, cross the road and transfer to B1 to Lok Ma Chau Terminus (southern exit of the mountain) 📷Photography and Recreation It's better to take photos on a sunny day! But remember to protect yourself from the sun with items like hats, sunblock clothing, and mosquito repellent. Although there are fewer mosquitoes on the mountain, it's still better to be prepared, especially if you attract mosquitoes. I recommend wearing long pants, and don't ask me why, because I've experienced the deep grass in shorts and it's not pleasant. On a cloudy day, don't be discouraged. The prairie over 500 meters near the sea is shrouded in mist on the mountaintop, resembling a fairyland! It's not hot, but be prepared for rain with gear like a rain jacket. A final reminder: Climbing the mountain can be physically demanding, so bring some snacks, mineral drinks, and water. It's better to bring these from Shenzhen, as things are relatively expensive and there are fewer shops on the other side. Jigongling

Hong Kong Jigongling is worth your visit Jigongling is the closest mountain from Hong Kong to Shenzhen. It is located in Yuen Long, opposite the Futian Port. It can be reached in half an hour after crossing the border. The altitude is not high, 574 meters. The whole journey is 7 kilometers. It is not difficult. Standing on the top of the mountain, you can see the whole Shenzhen. Starting point: Fengji Township End point: Qiaotou Photo: Take bus No. 75 at Futian Port. There is no voice announcement on the bus. Tell the driver where you want to go in advance and he will drop you off at the nearest intersection (only cash or Octopus card are accepted) : It is most convenient to take a taxi directly to Fengji Township. Tell the driver that everyone knows that you are going to climb Jigongling Mountain. The journey takes about 10 minutes and costs about 90 Hong Kong dollars. Return trip: After going down the mountain, you will come to a road. Not far to the right is the Qiaotou bus stop. Take the 77K bus to the last stop Sheung Shui, which is also the Sheung Shui MTR station, and then transfer to the MTR back to Lo Wu/Lok Ma Chau It is really necessary to bring sunscreen and an umbrella. Don't think it's troublesome. Even on cloudy or rainy days, the ultraviolet rays are still very strong. Protect yourself from the sun on sunny days and protect yourself from rain on rainy days.
