Castle Peak (above Tuen Mun)

 
 

Start: Take Bus 961 from outside Pacific Place in Admiralty to Tuen Mun. Get off at Shan King Estate, after the bus goes over the Tuen Mun river and turns right.  Follow the signs to Tsing Shan Monastery. There is a very steep uphill walk to the top.  From the top we headed North down onto the road finishing at Tai Shui Hang on the west coast.

End: You can catch a bus back to Yuen Long

Description: This walk has some fantastic views of Tuen Wan - It is worth the extra 5 minutes to the very top (with the ariels) to see the view. There is not much shade in this walk - so not one for the summer. The first hour is steeply up steps.

Time: 5 hours

 
"...fatal or otherwise..." How could we resist...?

This road had certainly 'fallen into disrepair'.
