[Eastern Hong Kong Island] Admiralty Trail: A relaxing picnic with easy access to natural wonders

#springplace2024 The 9km-long Admiralty Trail is located in the eastern part of Hong Kong Island. It is well connected and you can choose the section that suits you according to your physical strength, time and preferences. You can go to Jardine's Lookout, Mount Butler and Braemar Hill, as well as Wong Nai Chung Gap and Tai Tam Reservoir Road. It is definitely a great place for a spring outing. This time we started from Braemar Hill and left at Quarry Bay along the Quarry Bay Tree Study Trail. The lush trees on both sides of the trail provide shade and make the entire road very quiet. On weekdays, there are not many hikers, so people can instantly escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and be immersed in the tranquility of nature. Most of the trails are mountain roads and are a bit steep at times, but you can overlook Victoria Harbour and the rolling mountains from the top. There are many wild plants on both sides of the mountain trail, and wild animals such as wild boars can be seen from time to time. If you encounter wild animals while hiking, you must remain calm and do not get too close to them to avoid danger. Route: Start from Mount Butler Road or Braemar Hill, take the King's Crossing Trail to Tai Tam Reservoir Road, Jardine's Lookout, Little Ma Shan, and follow the Quarry Bay Tree Study Trail to Gilley Road in Quarry Bay #KingsgateTrail #IslandEast #trip #relax #hiking #hikingrouterecommended
