Lantau Stage 5 & 6: Shum Wat Road to Tai O 

 

See the topographical map

Start: Take ferry to Mui Wo  and then bus to Tai O (or MTR to Tung Chung and bus to Tai O).  After you see Shek Pik on your right, the bus turns right and goes uphill.  Get off the bus just before the top of the hill  where you see the notice board with the Lantau Trail map.

End: You must do Stage 5 and 6 together. Finishes in Tai O from where you catch a bus to Mui O or Tung Chung

Time: 4 hours 

Difficulty: The first part is undulating but the second half is flat and downhill into Tai O. A really beautiful walk - highly recommended.
