Hike: Three Fathoms Cove in Sai Kung
Details
Three Fathoms Cove - Sai Kung
Difficulty Level: 2.5
Distance: 14+ km (approximate)
Time: 5-6 hours
Description: This hike is relaxing and quiet as most of it follows a babbling brook until it reaches Three Fathoms Cove. Though it is mostly flat, there are 2-3 areas that require a little more work. We'll just take our time and get through these areas as a team and at a moderate pace. The point is to enjoy the great outdoors together and to be safe.
Some highlights: Along the way we'll pass by two Hakka villages, forests, grasslands, wetlands, and mangroves.
What to bring:
- 3-4 liters of water
- Snacks to eat along the way (sandwich, fruits, nuts, etc)
- Hiking shoes with good support
- Sunglasses
- Headgear (cap/hat)
- Sunscreen
- Bug Spray
- In case of Rain: plan accordingly
Toilets: There are at least 2-3 toilets along the way.
Restaurants/Stores: There may be one or two small shops along the route that sell drinks and snacks. If they’re open, we can stop to rest and order something. However, their operating hours are not guaranteed. Please plan accordingly in case they are closed.
Meeting Point: Sai Kung Pier (near the 7-11 Convenience Store)
Time: 10:00 am (SHARP)
IMPORTANT: Out of respect to the members that arrive on time, we will only be able to wait a maximum of 5 minutes. Should you arrive after 10:05 am, I will no longer be answering phone calls or responding to messages as I need to give my time and attention to those that have arrived on time.
