Mapping the Hong Kong Island Coastal Trail

Join us for a trailblazing journey of rediscovering the fascinating and varied coastline of Hong Kong Island. Connecting known routes, small paths and lost trails, it is now possible to walk the 65-km long trail along the shores of Hong Kong Island offering a unique and different perspective on the city.

EVENT DETAILS:

• The mapping event will run from 21st December – 18th January. You can take part at any time, at your own convenience.
• The 65km trail is divided into 8 sections, from easy to moderate in difficulty. There's something for everyone, from steep remote mountain climbs to flat urban harbourside walks. If you're feeling like you want a challenge, you can run or walk the entire trail in one go, or if you want some leisurely walks, you can split up your journey into sections over several days.
• When you sign up, you will receive an e-mail with detailed instructions for each section. You simply print the set for your preferred section, pack some water and snacks and be on your way! The TrailWatch app will help you navigate on the way.
• Along the trail are over 70 Points of Interest. Places with a story to tell. We ask you to stop, take a breather, have a wander. Share with us your pictures, observations and conversations (English or Chinese) through the TrailWatch App, What'sApp or e-mail. We'll collect the most compelling narratives and photographs and put them on an illustrated map.
• End of January we'll publish Hong Kong's first community-created Hong Kong Island Coastal Trail Walking Map
• Each participating team will get a pack with 12 Hong Kong neighbourhood walks as a souvenir.
• and prizes for teams with most original entries!!
