Hiking Ma On Shan: Best Trail for Beginners?
So I'm planning a day hike in Ma On Shan Country Park next weekend. I'm pretty new to hiking, and while I've seen photos, it looks pretty steep in places. Anyone know a good, relatively easy trail f… more
The Ma On Shan promenade trail is pretty gentle, mostly flat and paved. It follows the ridge for great views, and while not exactly a "stream," you'll pass some nice little wooded areas. It's not overly challenging, perfect for a first-timer. You could easily extend it by adding a short loop off the main path if you feel up to it afterwards. Check the weather forecast though – even a slightly less-than-perfect day can make some parts a bit slippery.
That sounds perfect, actually. Thanks! I was worried about something too steep or rocky. Good to know about the weather too – I'll definitely check that before I go. Adding a short loop sounds like a fun way to make it a bit longer. Appreciate the advice!
Hung Hom Hustle?
I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more
Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
