Nei Lak Shan Country Trail Information

It is a 5km route that takes 2 hours to complete. Starting at the front entrance of Dong Shan Fa Mun, it winds up the hill and levels up a little at the 500m point. Here, you can enjoy a distant view of Tei Tong Tsai where white chalets stand out in the middle of sylvan forests. All of these are Buddhist halls and religious retreats where reverent believers practice Buddhism. Moving on, Tung Chung new town gets closer and closer. Nei Lak Shan is a peak north of Ngong Ping. Rising 751 metres, it is the seventh highest peak in Hong Kong. With a tapering conical peak and a full rounded middle section, it resembles Maitreya in a seated pose.

Some sections of the country trail cut through secondary forests. The diversity of flora is very rich and you can see trees of magnificent form and lush foliage. They are natural treasures bestowed upon us. So when you enjoy the benefit of this lovely green trail, spare a thought for flora conservation.
