Urban-Outdoors | Hong Kong

Dreaming to hike with monkeys? It is possible at Shing Mun Country Park and there are around 1800 monkeys there. Just remember to hide any plastic bags or food during the hike.

Parkview’s rugged stretches of green, brown and intermittent cement steps offers everything you could want in an urban outdoor experience—zero cars, a great workout, cheerful fellow hikers, interesting terrain and fantastic city and countryside views.

Located in the east of Hong Kong Island, this 6.6-km walk (Stage 2 of Wilson Trail) is one of the most accessible hiking trails in the city.

The locals and expats prefer a short walk enveloping the Peak and enjoy the city’s spectacular view for free.

Chosen as the Best Urban Hike in Asia by Time Magazine in 2004, Dragon’s Back is the most popular hike for tourists and expats due to its easy accessibility and stunning vistas.

Guys, if you love party and outdoor, this High & Dry event on 9-June will be perfect for you. And it is FREE. According to my sources :), 350 people will be showing up, together with Hong Kong’s top house and techno DJs. Why Tai Long Wan Beach Party? It is just amazingly beautiful (my favorite always), and if it is too hot, jump into the water.

Sheung Luk Stream behind Tai Long Sai Wan is located in Sai Kung East Country Park. Around a 10 minutes’ walk from Sai Wan are the Four Pools. The upper pool with a 40 ft high vertical cliff standing on its side is the largest and deepest among the four, where you can jump off from a cliff and take some cool pictures.

Here I will list out the phone numbers of all Taxi call centers in Hong Kong. For taxi booking in Hong Kong – Simply make a call and tell them your desired pick-up and drop-off locations. If they say “No Taxis are available” but you’re in urgent, try tipping HK$5-20 more :)

Turning from a cinema into Hong Kong’s first all inclusive indoor climbing gym with a 7-metre high climbing wall, Da Verm Climbing Club is the new hot spot for climbing lovers on the Hong Kong Island. Da Verm offers bouldering, top rope climbing and sport/ lead climbing.

Spent my weekend at Sai Kung (again) under heavy rain at night and mosquito attacks. Oh I forgot to mention the cold shower and the adventure of almost kicking a cow in the dark.
