This is a must do in HK for the experienced hikers. Love the views, nature and the combination of dirt paths and steps...absolutely a surreal experience climbing the Lantau peak😇

Quite a long trail with lots of steeps but the landscape is a masterpiece. It took us 2.5h to reach lantau peak and another 1.5h to reach Ngongping. Very windy on the top. You should bring at least 1.5h liter of water as the steeps and sun will melt you down. A must-do in HongKong

A good hike. Rocky stairs and up here, the view are superb. Good experience to be above here. At times, it's windy. Hike from Pak Kung Au is easier as its not as steep. But prepare yourself with water and food if you wanna take time to enjoy the view. Umbrella or rain coat just in case.

(Translated by Google) About 2 clocks (normal road speed), along the road are slanting roads, Fuping Road, it is recommended to carry the mountain shoes (anti-smashing), because the original road has a lot of gravel. (Original) 行大約2個鐘（平常行路速度）， 沿路都係斜路，冇咩平路， 建議著行山鞋（ 防跣）， 因為原路有好多碎石。

Always a pleasure to run the lantau Trail. Even better when accompanied by your wife! 😍

Amazing experience! Trail is definitely not easy and quite long compared with the generic Dragon Back types. It is really fun and you meet a lot of people on the way! Definitely will suggest to try it

Lantau Peak area is often shrouded by clouds, so you really need good weather and clear sky to enjoy. The wind there is strong...very strong.

The hike up to Lantau Peak from Ngong Ping is an incredibly rewarding experience and a highlight of my trip on the island. Wonderful climb with very well kept paths

Many times hikes here, very amazing view with variant tracks experienced, easy, medium or hard hike, but the most worthy challenging when solohike on storm. .

Ok to go hiking.

The Lantau Trail via Pa Kung Au to Ngong Ping is a short distance at 4.5km but way steep going up and down. Contrary to what the signages estimated, ours was double or triple because of the steepness and we were not physically ready with the assaults. Despite our tiredness we were rewarded with beautiful landscapes, cool and fresh breeze, and wonderful weather.

(Translated by Google) Phoenix Mountain is located on Lantau Island and is the second highest mountain in Hong Kong, second only to Tai Mo Shan. Nevertheless, climbing Phoenix Mountain is more difficult than Tai Mo Mountain, and Phoenix Mountain is the highest mountain in Hong Kong that most people can reach. It is also a popular place to watch the sunrise and the sea of ​​clouds, so it is called "Phoenix Viewing Sun". People who watch the sunrise usually start from Pak Kung Au in the middle of the night and climb the third section of the Phoenix Trail. From the mountain pass "Bogongao" to the top of the mountain, the vertical climb is less than 500 meters, which seems not difficult to conquer. Slowly ascend along the hiking trails, and the view gradually opens up. You can see the Hong Kong International Airport, Changsha Bay and Shek Pik Reservoir. The fog here is also famous. The magnificent scenery can easily fall into the mist and test the courage of climbers. And perseverance. Visitors who intend to watch the sun must start from the "Phoenix Watching the Sun" archway at 4 a.m. and climb up the Phoenix Trail, commonly known as the ladder, to reach the top of the mountain in about 2 hours and wait for the sunrise. (Original) 鳳凰山位於大嶼山，是香港的第二高的山峰，僅次於大帽山。雖然如此，登鳳凰山比大帽山難度更高，而且鳳凰山是一般人可到達的香港最高山峰。這裡更是觀賞日出和雲海的熱門地點，故有「鳳凰觀日」之稱。觀賞日出的人通常會在深夜由伯公坳作起點，經鳳凰徑第三段登山。 從登山口「伯公坳」到山頂，垂直爬昇不到500公尺，似乎不難征服。沿著登山步道緩緩登高，視野漸漸開闊，可以遙望香港國際機場、長沙海灣與石壁水塘等，這裡的霧氣也是有名，方才壯闊的景致，很容易就陷入迷霧之中，考驗登山者的勇氣和毅力。打算觀日的遊客，須凌晨4時，從「鳳凰觀日」牌坊出發，沿著俗稱天梯的鳳凰徑登高，約2小時可達山頂，守候日出的瞬間。

To go to Pak Kung Au, take Tung Chung Bus Terminal to take bus No. 11 towards Tai O or bus No. 23 to Ngong Ping, and get off at Pak Kung Au Station. The uncle is the starting point of Dadong Mountain and Fenghuang Mountain, one left and one right. Today, from the beginning of the father-in-law, it took about one and a half minutes to go to the top of Fenghuang Mountain, and the return journey fell to the Ngong Ping about 45 minutes to the left. The whole uphill section is dominated by stone grade, and the stone grade is paved and flat. 2020-1-23 Today weather is good and I go to Lantau Peak. It takes me around one and a half hour to reach the Lantau Peak starting from Pak Kung Au and around 45 minutes to go to the Ngong Ping Village. Pak Kung Au is the starting point of both Sunset Peak and Lantau Peak. You can take the bus '11' in Tung Chung, leave at Pak Kung Au station, later on you can simply walk through the phoenix trail to reach the peak, there are destination board which can guide you there.

Lantau Trail is made of 12 stages and is a loop trail starting at Mui Wo. The trail is well-maintained and marked with yellow directional posts and distance posts (L001-L139). You can either do it clockwise (stages 12 to 1) or anti-clockwise (stages 1-12), the latter preferred for a few reasons. Firstly, you'll get to do the most challenging parts (sections 1-3) conquering the Sunset and Lantau peaks on the first day. For the second day sections 4,5,6,7 are ideal as it first goes up quite a bit, but from Tai O onwards you enjoy the stroll along the seaside till Fan Lau or Kau Ling (depending where you decide to pitch your tent over the night). Kau Ling is a better option as the path from the beach will bring you then directly to the start of section 8. As for the third day, it's mostly paved and flat along the catchwater, with some parts of the trail going on rocky and dusty surfaces. We advise to finish sections 8,9,10 & 11 all the way to Pui O, where you can camp. This way the day 4 has the last 9.5km left of the section 12, leading you to Mui Wo. Along the trail there places to restock your food such as Mui Wo, Ngong Ping village, Tai O, Fan Lau, Shui Hau, Pui O. As many parts are unshaded appropriate gear and water supply are necessary, however in the emergency case you can restock your water at the public bathroom unless there is an explicit sign saying that water isn't potable (but this is to be done at your own risk and should be done only in absolute emergency)

Its perfect scenery

I like this the place. 🌄

I was having a good time hiking in lantau trail. The trail they called NORTH HEAVEN'S GATE. IT WAS steep and the path was challenging need to step carefully cause one wrong step will make u fall. But that risky part are not long so no worries. In that trail you can see the dripping cave which is amazing in its own way. There's rocks formation that they named as soldier rock too. And many more to see. So folks go and see😂

(Translated by Google) Although it was foggy that day, it felt like going to Xianjing. Miscanthus was just in full bloom, and the wind was strong on the top of the mountain, and the sun's thick fog dispersed. (Original) 當天雖然大霧，感覺像去了仙景一樣。芒草剛盛開，山頂較大風，一出太陽濃霧就散開了。

The Lantau Trail (Chinese: 鳳凰徑), opened on 4 December 1984, is a long-distance footpath on Lantau Island in the New Territories of Hong Kong. The 70 kilometres (43 mi) trail is a loop starting and finishing in Mui Wo. It is the third longest trial in Hong Kong, after MacLehose Trail and Wilson Trail. The Lantau Trail has good visitor facilities along the way, and the route is well marked. There are information boards and maps at junctions between each stage. Distance posts around 500 metres apart help hikers know where they are. At each turning, route signs give instructions about directions, place names, and the distances and times for hiking between various locations.

Tried doing all 70 km at once, crazy experience. So much variety, from cloudy mountain tops to dense jungle paths. Very scenic, but the areas around fan Lau village were a bit rough, especially in the dark.

Lantau trail sections 7&8 are very scenic. It's almost 4 hours starting from Tai O to Shek Pik reservoir.

It was great trail, more Steps, great views, cool place relax after the long stairs 🙂 have benches along the way .

A must do.. while in Hong Kong. There are differing difficulty levels depending on the route you choose, so maybe look at the options to suit what you want from the hike.

Bus M3 gets you from the ferry to the trailhead. Trail can be longer or shorter depending on where you start. Parts are pretty steep! Great views during the ascent and from the top

(Translated by Google) Phoenix Mountain to watch the sunrise! Since I heard that Dawei has been there, the second highest peak in Hong Kong, 934 meters! On Saturday, I asked him to take the Lantau Island bus to Pak Kung Au, and it is correct. It is also at an altitude of 340.8 meters. The Dadongshan mountain is an important meeting point! Gangshang talks here, stretches and slopes easily D, Ngong Ping has a short distance but has to climb the ladder (1km to climb 350 meters 😅), the scenery is beautiful, Looking at both sides of the Changsha Shuikou in Tung Chung of the airport, I walked slowly for 2 minutes to the top of the mountain. Unfortunately, it was a heavy fog. After that, I went to Ngong Ping Market for 1 Zhongluoshan. The water was calm and the geese flew. When I had time and strength, I decided to walk along the 360 ​​cable car. The Ngong Ping plank road is about 6km away from Tung Chung. Many sections of the road are built with wooden planks on the mountain, and the tree sounds along the way are good, but if you go up the mountain, it will be a bit sweet, because you have to climb 555 meters high first to Ngong Ping! (The whole journey is about 13km) (Original) 鳳凰山睇日出!由細聽到大未去過,香港第2高峰,934米!星期六求其搭架大嶼山巴士係伯公坳落,無錯,又係海拔340.8米高嘅伯公坳落車,上869米嘅大東山都係,重要嘅交匯點嘛!綱上話這邊上拉長上斜輕鬆D,昂平上路程短D但要上天梯(1km要攀升350米😅),原來風景咁靚,機場東涌長沙水口兩邊望哂,慢行2個鐘到山頂,可惜大霧,之後行1個鐘落山去昂平市集,水靜鵝飛,仲有時間同体力,決定沿360纜車走,行約6km嘅昂坪棧道落東涌,路段好多係依山用木板搭建,好好行沿途樹音,但如果係上山就幾甘,因要上555米高先到昂平!(全程約13km)

(Translated by Google) It's difficult. (Original) 很難行。

It was very spectacular

Great hiking path, it is physically quite strenuous at some points but a rewarding experience.

Second highest peak... beautiful view... exhausting hiking trail but all in all a wonderful experience

Great
