Ma On Shan Mystery

fmd_good Ma On Shan Country Park

So, I hiked Ma On Shan Country Park last weekend – stunning views, I'll give it that. But I stumbled across this weird, almost hidden, little stone structure halfway up Lion Rock. Looked ancient, co… more

Sounds creepy! Ma On Shan's got a lot of history, so it wouldn't surprise me if there were some forgotten structures tucked away. Maybe an old shrine? Or maybe a remnant of some long-forgotten village. I've never heard of anything like that specifically, though. Try searching local Hong Kong history forums or maybe even contacting the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department. They might have some old records. Could be worth a shot. You could also check out some of the older hiking blogs – someone might have mentioned it before. Good luck with your mystery-solving!

That's a great suggestion! I hadn't thought about contacting the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department. I figured it'd be a long shot, but hey, worth a try. I'll definitely check out some older hiking blogs too – maybe someone stumbled across something interesting and just didn't think it was important enough to report. Thanks for the tips! I'll keep you updated if I find anything... This whole thing is driving me nuts!

Sai Kung's Secret Trails?

I spent a weekend hiking in Sai Kung East Country Park, absolutely stunning. The views from Sharp Peak were incredible, totally worth the sweat. But I got seriously lost trying to find a less-trod… more

Oof, Sai Kung can be a beast! Sharp Peak is killer, I agree. Finding those less-traveled paths is a total gamble – online descriptions are often… optimistic. Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
