It is a little known fact and a big surprise to most visitors, but Hong Kong is truly a great place to go hiking.
Although Hong Kong is regarded as one of the world's great cities, about 75% of its 1,092 square kilometres of land is countryside that is generally too steep and mountainous to be developed and so has remained in a relatively wild state and no other territory in the world has so much land, almost 40% of its total area, committed to conservation and recreation on the very edge of a metropolis.
Add to this, an amazing fauna and flora, with hundreds of butterfly and dragonfly species, exotic reptiles, a rich bird life as well as several unique mammals, such as dolphins, muntjacs, pangolins and wild boars.
Finally, hiking in Hong Kong is also a trip back in time. Some of the trails have been used for more than 400 years and take the curious hiker to various spots of historical interest, from ancient kilns to World War II fortifications and past ancient villages and farmland.
