So I spent the day tromping around this incredible park – seriously, the views were insane. The trails were well-marked...mostly. I got a little turned around near the end and ended up stumbling onto… more

Yeah, Sai Kung's trails can be a bit… enthusiastic in their embrace of nature. Sticking to the main, well-marked paths is probably your best bet, especially if you're not a seasoned hiker.

Yeah, it's definitely weird. Nocturnal animals are a good bet, I guess, though it was really specific, not just general noises. Local legends...that's an interesting thought. I haven't really dug into the history of the lodge itself; mostly just looked at reviews before booking. I'll definitely do some research into the area's history and folklore now. Thanks for the suggestion! Plumbing quirks explain some things, but not the feeling of...being watched. It was unsettling.
