Here we are on the Lion Rock again. Instead of starting our hike from Wong Tai Sin this time, we started from Kowloon Tong and that is a much easier route to get to the top of the Lion Rock 👍🏻
𝐃𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐲 𝐇𝐢𝐤𝐞:
𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐏𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭: 𝐂𝐡𝐮𝐤 𝐘𝐮𝐞𝐧 𝐑𝐨𝐚𝐝, 𝐓𝐬𝐳 𝗪𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐧 慈雲山竹園道
𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐨: Take minibus no. 73 from Yau Yat Chuen Public Transport Interchange, Kowloon Tong 又一城公共運輸交匯處
Walk up the stairs after you get off the minibus at Chuk Yuen Road. When you see the entrance of the Lion Rock Park, turn right and walk up the stairs again. This is where your journey begins!
𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝟏: 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐊𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 香港回歸紀念亭 (1 hour from the starting point)
We saw monkeys along the way. Remember not to feed the monkeys and keep your food and plastic bags away. They have learned to snatch plastic bags from visitors in an attempt to obtain food.
𝐓𝐨𝐩 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐑𝐨𝐜𝐤
(1 hour 45 minutes from starting point)
We spent 1 hour 15 minutes on the Lion Rock, taking photos and enjoying the panoramic view of the Kowloon Peninsula. The mountain top was full of people.
It took us another hour to go back to the starting point using the same route.
𝐇𝐢𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞: 4 hours
𝐃𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬: Overall, it is not too difficult for a beginner like me. The road going up the lion rock is sandy and not paved well, mind your steps. Don’t stand near the cliff!
