Dragon Back Trail, Hong Kong

Hola,
For my first post I would like to share about my recent hike in Dragon Back Trail, Hong Kong.
I was on my 10 days work trip in Hong Kong (10th to 20th Nov) and I took the opportunity to fulfill my (2) weekends discovering a few virgin area in Hong Kong. The Dragon's Back are one of them. This trail are one of the top 5 hiking trail in Hong Kong as quoted by Lonely Planet. As I stay in Tung Chung for this trip, I had to take a train from Tung Chung Station (Orange Lane) to Hong Kong Station, then I had to transit to Island Line (Blue lane) train to Shau Kei Wan Station. In Shau Kei Wan station I had to exit to Shau Kei Wan Bus Terminus and take the Bus No.9 Shek O to Tei Wan where I begin the hike. Since this trail are among the famous trail and its was on Saturday when I'm there, there's a hypes of hikers and I don't feel alone at all. It took me about 2 hours to hike up and down towards Big Wave Bay Beach where I stop for juices and French fries. Big Wave Bay Beach are popular spot for boogie boarding and long board surfing. After about an hour relaxing in Big Wave Bay beach I had to hike up and down the stairs to the nearest MRT Station, Chai Wan Station (Blue Lane). It took me about 1hour to reach the station back to Tung Chung. Taraaaaa..that's it. not much to share. You can gain more information about this place in below link. I also attached some of the photos i took with my Oppo Phone. In summary its a worth trip. I get to witness a beautiful coastal scenery, get sweat and felt good about it.
