A Pok Fu Lam Country Park and Reservoir Hiking Note

Pok Fu Lam Country Park sits in western Hong Kong Island, covering about 270 hectares around Pok Fu Lam Reservoir. The reservoir was completed in 1863, the first on Hong Kong Island. Stages 1 and 2 of the 50-kilometre, eight-stage Hong Kong Trail fall within the park, running along Lugard Road and Harlech Road on Victoria Peak, with views over the reservoir, Victoria Harbour and southern Hong Kong Island. It is a Southern District spot, so check opening information before setting out. For planning, refer to the official transport information or use Google Maps route planning.

Editor’s noteFor the first two stages of the Hong Kong Trail plus reservoir and harbour views, this is a solid Southern District option. Check opening information before you go, and refer to the official transport information or Google Maps for route planning.
