7 Outdoor Activities in Peak That You Shouldn't Miss

May 22, 2021 Matilde Konrad

Delectable dim sum, floating islands, and a one-of-a-kind skyline are just some of Hong Kong’s unique features. Get an eyeful of traditional Chinese architecture in Ngong Ping village, then take the tram to the tippity-top of Victoria Peak for unparalleled views. The rocks and gentle hills of Nan Lian Garden will bring you inner peace, as will a calming cup of tea in a Stanley café. Become one with everything at the Chi Lin Nunnery, a serene Buddhist complex.

Lugard Road

Reviewed By TheOExpress - Hong Kong, China

Of the many, many spots in HK that could to be said to provide the best view, this loop around from The Peak has as good case as any, particularly as it provides views of island all the way from Kennedy Town to Causeway Bay. Very much worth wandering around if you do visit The Peak, as the first part provides some good views out to Lamma too. Some amazing trees around too, lots of them with info plaques as well: how helpful!

Central Green Trail

Reviewed By yujino880 - Seoul, South Korea

We discovered this trail when we were playing and laundering around Peak Tram station and Hong Kong park. We took a wrong road at the hospital, but it was fun as well. The trail goes through some of old buildings and old tram stations, and can feel greens within the city. It is an easy trail, so you can bring young children. It would be safer to bring water.

Old Peak Road

Reviewed By MountaineerLu - Falling Waters, United States

We walked this trail down from the peak to the city. Due to the steepness many muscles used in legs that are not normally used when descending rapidly. We walked at twilight in winter and surprised how many people were using this trail. Many runners in both directions. Many ex pats. There are great views at the top then you are in dense sub tropical forest.many switchbacks. There is a public toilet just under the peak tower then one more a bit further down. We did not see the other toilets towards the bottom that others write about. About half way down the trail merges with a service road for expensive skyscraper condo projects on both sides of the narrow road with a fair amount of traffic. At points no sidewalks. You are forced into the traffic. After a while this service road ends and you are forced to go left or right. We went left towards mid levels. At one point the road crosses a ravine and the sidewalk is tilted towards it. Not comfortable for those afraid of heights. Soon you are at mid level escalators lined with bars, restaurants and clubs. It's always happy hour there. You can stop for a cold one or two and later continue downwards towards Central.

Pok Fu Lam Country Park

Reviewed By acousticoz - Sherwood Park, Canada

I used to live in Pok Fu Lam, and on my recent visit to Hong Kong, and suffering from jey lag, I decided to get a taxi out to Pok Fu Lam reservoir road and do the walk along that road up the hill and turn right to go to Chi Fu for breakfast. It was 5.30AM and v quiet. There are local people walking and exercising along the route and minding their own business often with a courteous "hello." As you walk past the reservoir you can see fish and tortoise from the viewing points and the vegetation is lush with many birds. As you get up the hill you will find a number of sign posts...go to the left to walk up to the Peak, go right for a walk to Chi Fu and Aberdeen. If you need a flat stretch of bitumen to run along the road itself is about 800 metres I suspect. Overall, this is a quiet place in the early morning, a good place to gather thoughts and plan your day. The 40M and 40 buses pass this area if you choose to use public transport.
