Hong Kong vlog: Hiking to the Peak via the Morning Trail

There are 2 ways to get the Peak: one is by taking the cable car (easy way) and the other one is by hiking and there are a few hikes you can choose from.
I recently did the Morning hike which is a really nice hike combining lush nature with stunning views of the cityscape below me as I get higher and higher.

Practical info:
To get to the trailhead, I recommend you take the Central–Mid-Levels escalator which is the longest outdoor covered escalator system in the world!
At the end of it, turn right and walk for around 15min till you see the trailhead on your left.

Difficulty:
I found the hardest to be at the beginning with the steepest gradients being in the first third of the hike. Afterwards, it gets easier and easier till you have a lot of flat towards the end of the hike.

Once at the Peak, I recommend you check out the shopping mall and why not do like I did treat yourself to a McDonalds and eat your burger outside- I found the views from there to be incredible.

Enjoy the video and thanks for giving it a like to help grow my channel.
