Start:  Take MTR to Choi Hung. Take exit C and take a minibus to Sai Kung.  Get off at the last stop (the bus station). Then taxi to start of walk at Long Ke. (From Admiralty MTR, expect 1 hr 20 minutes travel time)

Start:  There are several ways to get to the start. 
1) Take MTR to Choi Hung. Take exit C and take a minibus to Sai Kung.  Get off at the last stop (the bus station). Then taxi to the start of walk. (From Admiralty MTR, expect 1 hr 20 minutes travel time) 
2) MTR to Hang Hau and take the minibus to Sai Kung bus terminus. Then taxi to the start of walk.

End: You can catch a bus to Sai Kung or Diamond Hill MTR.

Time: 5 hours

Difficulty: Difficult. A couple of 400m hills (and some smaller ones) and back down to sea level in between. Start at the beautiful High Island reservoir and walk over a couple of beaches including Tai Long Wan whose long yellow sand beaches are popular for camping (the less fit people get a boat here from Sai Kung). This is one of the few stages on any of Hong Kong's trails where there are restaurants to stop for lunch on the way. 

You see some superb panoramas during the walk.

Short Cut: You can shorten the walk by starting at the end of the Sai Kung San Wan Road where there is a trail to Sai Wan. Get there by taxi from Sai Kung or take a minibus. 

Sharp Peak - If you want to climb Sharp Peak, it is better to start from end of Stage 2 and walk down the beach and back again. If you run out of time, you can catch a small boat from Chek Keng to Wong Shek Pier for around HK$20. Last bus from Wong Shek Pier - 7.45pm. Boats from Sai Kung to Tai Long Wan only run when it is calm enough to land (usually summer only)
