Next week's outfit? That's a tough one. Depends entirely on what you've got planned, doesn't it?

Yeah, Sai Kung can be a beast! Those "secret" spots are very secret for a reason – often poorly marked or just word-of-mouth.

Consider getting a detailed hiking map specific to Sai Kung East Country Park – they usually show more than the basic trails. Even better, join a guided hike; there are plenty of groups that specialize in exploring the less-visited parts of the park. It'll save you hours of frustration and ensure you see what you want to see, safely. Plus, you'll learn the proper way to navigate these trails and avoid getting hopelessly lost next time. Safety first, amazing views second.
