Po Kwu Wan 曝罟灣 Adventure
It’s a hidden bay of Sai Kung, next to Sheung Yiu Trail and close to high island reservoir. It’s special with its half moon shape concrete embankment.
Starting point located in Sai Kung Country Park, follow the signs to Pak Tam Chung Nature Trail(北潭涌自然教育徑)/ Sheung Yiu Family Walk (上窯家樂徑), passing a beautiful lake-like creeks heading to Sheung Yiu Folk Museum and the swamp with mangroves.
First stop would be Hei Tsz Wan (起子灣)pier. From there, we spontaneously took an adventure trip, coasteering to the direction of Po Kwu Wan. It’s actually pretty straightforward, just walk along the coastline.
We started early on Sunday morning, bump into a handful of people at Po Kwu Wan and few groups at Yuen Ng Fan view point, only a couple of fishermen while coasteering and non when hiking out to Man Yee Road.
Distance: approx 6km
Difficulty: Easy Intermediate
Duration: approx 3.5 hours
How to get there:
- Take bus 94 heading to Wong Shek Pier from Sai Kung; Get off at Sheung Yiu Bus Stop
- If you’re driving and want to be as close to the starting point as possible, go early and you may find a spot at Sai Kung Country Park Visitor Centre
- Or you could park at the metres car parks along Tai Mong Zai Road and hop on to taxi or bus 94

Brick Hill
When kids have too much screen time (few hours of zoom classes), sports centres & indoors activities closed, and there’s no playground for them to waste some energy… they became emotionally unstable, unable to focus and basically showing impact on their mental health and overall well-being.
Please, I’m not interested in adding on screen time, so don’t recommend the online exercise or switch’s just dance/ sport related game.
I still prefer outdoor activities with kids. We normally do it early to avoid the crowd. Trust me, 80-90% of the people prefer sleep in and starting their day after brunch. Hence, when we took a hike to Brick Hill, it’s pretty much just us and a handful of other hikers.
Speaking of Brick Hill or better known as Nam Long Shan is a hill near Wong Chuk Hang, overlooking Ocean Park, deep water bay and sham wan.
Difficulties : 2 out of 10
Scenic : 6 out of 10 ( we went on a gloomy day )
Duration ⏱ : approx 1.5 hours (round trip)
Distance: approx 5km
How to get there:
- MTR wong chuk hang station and walk uphill to Canadian International School ( you’ll pass by Singapore International School) and the entrance is nearby
- Bus 48, 72A, 75 and 107 that stops at Wong Chuk Hang terminal
- Parking at One South Island or any metered parking around Wong Chuk Hang station

Luk Keng to Kuk Po
Found another family friendly hiking trail ! It’s a round trip, easy route with tasty snacks and food in between.
It’s Sunday, to avoid crowd, we arrived at 9.30am, parked our car at Fanling then hail a taxi to Luk Keng. The hiking trail is pretty straight forward. Got off at Luk Keng’s BB happy store, walk along Bride’s Pool Road, then take the left road towards Fat Kee Store. The starling inlet/ mangrove swamps are on your left at all time while walking on Tiu-Tang-Long Path. Half way through, there are stairs headed towards the other side of the mountain, once over you’ll reach Fung Hang in no time.
There’s a public toilet at the entrance of the village next to a cafe. The stalls along Fung Hang Pier selling local made snacks such as 茶粿 (cha gwo) which is stuffed tea cake made with sticky rice flour, 砵仔糕 (put chai go) which is red bean pudding, pumpkin cake etc. Do give it a try ! I regretted not buying more as we have lunch plans at Kuk Po.

❤️黑腳𩶘 Blackhead Seabrem

Kid’s Friendly Hike at Cheung Chau Island
Finally having some time to share this special route we took after Cheung Po Tsai Cave. It’s a one way to Cheung Po Tsai Cave and back, so you could go to the cave first, then take another route back.
After the cave, walk back the way you came, until you see a stairs (right opposite of the stalls where people put down “stuff” for sale) on your right, quite steep down. It’ll lead the way to a walking path right behind of Sai Yuen Adventure Camp. When it’s low tide, you could keep walking, across Po Yue Wan and head up to the direction of Reclining Rock. From here, it’s pavements all the way along Cheung Chau Family Walk. At the junction near Pak Tso Wan, take left turn and continue walking back to the town.
Distance: probably 3km
Duration: less than 1.5 hours inc photo time
Scenic: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ of 5
Difficulty: 2 out of 5
It’s a short and easy walk, toddler can definitely walk their way without having to carry at all. We have a 2.5 year old amateur walker with us, and still managed to finish the route in less than 1.5 hours.
How to get to the starting point:
After arriving at Cheung Chau Pier, you have 3 options~
1. Take the boat at the pier next to the Ferry Pier, tell them you’re heading to Sai Wan 西灣. Your hike begins right next to the Sai Wan Pier.
2. Take a walk heading to Sai Wan direction, which is on your right once you are out from the pier. It’s approximately 20-25 minutes walk.
3. Rent a tricycle or something, lock it at the Sai Wan Pier or somewhere there and pick up when you’re done, cycle back to return your bike.
