The Leisurely Hiker’s Guide to Hong Kong

By any measure, Hong Kong is an impressive city. But there is a world beyond the impatient traffic and chic shopping malls: an older place of soot-blackened temples, traditional street markets and colonial-era museums. Travel twenty minutes out of the metropolis, and you'll find stone-laid trails, sheltered beaches and waterfront restaurants galore.

Bring your camera, but leave the camping gear at home. The 33 guided walks in this book are quickly reached from public transport, and can be completed in an afternoon – leaving ample time for your leisurely hike to be followed by leisurely dinner. Let this guide show you how close these attractions are to your hotel. An unhurried journey of discovery starts here.
