Itinerary description

Start at Tung Chung MTR and leave town by the Tung Mui Ancient trail which heads to Pak Mong village. At Pak Mong the stream is easy to find, head uphill, and be prepared to get you feet wet! There is no dry foot option on this hike. The stream starts off gentle with some nice waterfalls and swimming pools. Watch out for the pitcher plants on the lower section. Higher up the route goes into thicker jungle and in the upper section there is some difficult scrambling on the rocks next to the steep waterfalls, most of which can be bypassed on the right. Eventually there is an overhanging cliff, leave the stream and head to the right up a small footpath to the main trail back to Tung Chung.
