Sai Kung's Secret Trails?

fmd_good Sai Kung East Country Park

I spent a week hiking in Sai Kung East Country Park, absolutely stunning. The views from Sharp Peak were incredible, but I got hopelessly lost trying to find the less-traveled trails – the maps are..… more

Yeah, Sai Kung's trails are intense. The official maps are… optimistic. I've found AllTrails to be slightly better, but even then, you need a good sense of direction and maybe a compass. Download the offline map before you go – cell service is spotty. Also, pay attention to the cairns (those little piles of rocks). They're usually pretty reliable markers, even on the fainter trails. If you're really worried about getting lost, consider hiring a local guide – there are plenty around the park who know the area like the back of their hand. Don't underestimate the humidity and bring PLENTY of water. You'll be sweating buckets!

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
