Wo Yeung Rocky Group | Wo Yeung Hill‧ WalkOnHill - A trail for hiking in Hong Kong

The trail starts by following the pedestrian bridge toward the way to Discovery Park from Exit A of Tsuen Wan Railway Station. Head the bridge not far, it then joins the other bridge on the right at the junction leading to Route Twisk. After crossing the railway, it ascends the short flight of steps on the left up to Route Twisk. Afterward, follow Route Twist to the left a short distance, on the opposite side, the trail begins the long flight of uphill concrete steps of Fu Yung Path until Shing Mun Catchwater.

From the junction of Sheung Sze Forest Trail, follow the path ahead (northward) to climb Wo Yeung Shan which entry is obvious and has ribbons as a mark. After a steep climb, you could look back a panoramic view, left to Shing Mun Reservoir beneath Needle Hill with Lion Rock as the background, southward to Kwai Chung, Tsuen Wan, Tsing Yi and even far to Hong Kong Island. Further up, some of the large rocks distributing over the hillside could be also seen.

Up the trail not far, there is a large rock toward Shing Mun like a cliff on the right - Shek Tin Mun. Pay attention to the right, there is an obscure path to the top of Shek Tin Mun. Descend along the right edge of the huge rock of Shek Tin Mun, you could lead to the front of Shek Tin Mun. There is a narrow gap, like a rocky heaven gate as the meaning in chinese, near the center of the front side which could be passed through if you are confident of your figure. But its exit is narrower. Afterward, retrace the steps to the top then return to the main uphill path.

Note:
1. The uphill path of Wo Yeung Shan is quite steep, it would require clambering.
2. You could skip Shek Tin Mun.
3. Down to the front of Shek Tin Mun would require clambering. Moreover, its gap is quite narrow, don't force to pass through.

Continuing on along the main path, it slightly undulates and winds along the hillside roughly toward the west. Not far ahead, there is a clear branch on the right uphill leading to another rocky group toward the top of Tai Mo Shan, at that time take the left path. Afterward, the trail cuts through some shrublands and crosses some brooks then leads to a small square pool on the ground, known as 'Sky Pool'. Still go ahead, it then comes to the fire outlook where is also the highest point of Miu Ko Toi. It is one of the south branches of Tai Mo Shan there parallel to the ridge of Wo Yeung Shan that also stretches to the south. Overlook from the fire lookout, the urban districts in wide range beneath the hills even far to Lantau Island are all within the sight. To the northwest, it offers a distance view on Pat Heung, Yuen Long and Shenzhen of China. During the sunset, the colours of the sky changes from yellow-orange gradually to dark blue in the thin haze as if everything become mysterious, remote then silent.

Afterward, follow the downhill path on the left of the fire lookout, it is quite steep initially. Descend to the grassland, it turns gentle then still follows the main path downhill toward the south. After descending the concrete steps through Heung Shek Cemetery, the trail comes to the pavilion beside the road. Trace the concrete path ahead across the road, it leads to Tai Mo Shan Country Park Chuen Lung Management Office. Finally, follow the main road to the right until the minibus terminal at Route Twisk.

Exit: From the rear of the fire lookout, you could also follow the path northward to join Tai Mo Shan Road (toward the hilltop of Tai Mo Shan), then trace the road down to Route Twisk.
