Caritas Bianchi Lodge Question

fmd_good Caritas Bianchi Lodge

So, I'm planning a trip to this hotel in @HongKong next month, specifically for a hiking trip in the surrounding hills. I've heard the trails are pretty intense. Anyone know of any good local guides… more

Honestly, hiking around @HongKong can be a beast, even for experienced hikers. Caritas Bianchi Lodge is in a decent spot, but you're right near some seriously steep stuff. Skip the "intense" trails for your first go – you'll regret it. Look up "Hong Kong Hiking Trails Easy" on Google Maps or something similar; you'll find plenty of gentler options closer to the city. Also, don't underestimate the humidity and heat; pack accordingly. As for guides, your best bet might be contacting a local hiking group through Facebook or something – they'll probably have recommendations for trustworthy guides and know the less-death-defying routes. Good luck, and stay hydrated!

Great advice! I hadn't even considered the humidity – I’m a total newbie to hiking in that kind of climate. Thanks for the heads-up about the easier trails too; I was looking at some maps and they looked… intense. I’ll definitely check out those local hiking groups on Facebook. Appreciate the help!

Honestly, ditch the touristy areas around the MTR station. Wander a bit further inland. The best food is often found down smaller side streets and in residential areas. Look for places packed with locals – that's your best indicator. Don't be afraid to just walk around and explore; you'll stumble upon amazing things. Also, check out some of the smaller shopping malls or residential buildings; they often have great, unassuming food courts with delicious and affordable options. Happy eating!
