**Explore the Lion Rock Summit**

#HongKongHikingOuting Lion Tail Ridge is one of Hong Kong's thrilling and beautiful hiking trails, suitable for hikers with some experience. It is recommended to bring enough water, light snacks, a sun hat, and sunscreen, and to wear non-slip hiking shoes to ensure safety. Starting Point: Entering Lion Tail Ridge Lion Tail Ridge is located on the northwest side of Lion Rock and is one of the classic climbing routes to Lion Rock. The starting point can be accessed near the Kowloon Shek Lei Pui Reservoir, where you will climb the undulating rocky ridge to begin this exciting journey. Challenges and Scenery The biggest feature of Lion Tail Ridge is the rugged ridge along the way, requiring the use of both hands and feet during the climb, making it very challenging! At the same time, you can enjoy the magnificent city views of Hong Kong, overlooking Kowloon and the New Territories beyond Lion Rock. Along the way, you will also encounter several natural rock formations, perfect for taking photos. Reaching the Lion Rock Summit After passing through Lion Tail Ridge, you will finally reach the summit of Lion Rock, one of Hong Kong’s famous landmarks. From the top, you can overlook the entire Kowloon Peninsula, experiencing the blend of nature and urban life while enjoying a rewarding view. For the descent, you can choose to return to the city via the Lion Rock Country Trail, which is gentler compared to the climb on Lion Tail Ridge. The whole trip is both challenging and allows you to personally experience the natural beauty of Hong Kong.
