Hong Kong's Southern Hiking Paradise - Cape D'Aguilar

If you're looking for an ideal hiking destination, Cape D'Aguilar is a must-visit! With its stunning natural scenery and fresh air, it's the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. 🌟Cape D'Aguilar Hiking Trail The trails at Cape D'Aguilar are suitable for beginner hikers as they are mostly flat. The picturesque scenery along the way allows you to enjoy the beautiful nature and feel the charm of the great outdoors. Located at the southern tip of Hong Kong, adjacent to Shek O, Cape D'Aguilar was once considered a hidden gem due to its less convenient transportation compared to Shek O. However, as more people have come to explore this beautiful place, it is no longer a hidden spot. But I believe such beauty should be appreciated and experienced by everyone. 🚌Transportation Getting to Cape D'Aguilar is very convenient. You can first go to the Shau Kei Wan Bus Terminus and then take bus number 9 to Cape D'Aguilar Road. (❕On the return trip, there may be many people waiting for the bus, so it is recommended to arrive at the bus stop early.) 🌟Hiking Duration This hiking route is about 9 kilometers long and usually takes about 3 hours to complete. During this journey, you will experience various natural beauties, allowing you to fully appreciate the charm of nature. 📸🔥Thunder Cave — A Natural Wonder (Photos 3 & 4) Near Cape D'Aguilar, you can also visit Thunder Cave, a famous sea cave. Every time the waves rush through the narrow entrance into the cave, the deafening sound is like thunder, leaving a deep impression, hence the name "Thunder Cave". 📸🔥Viewing Tips❕❕ When visiting Thunder Cave, please pay special attention to the surroundings. Due to the long-term erosion by waves, the surface of the rocks has become very smooth. Be sure to walk carefully to avoid slipping or getting injured. The natural beauty here is worth savoring, but safety always comes first.

Cape D’Aguilar, a Marina Conservation Park Last year, we went to the South east side of Hong Kong Island and spent hours hiking the Cape D’Aguilar or Hok Tsui route. The trail is easy and smooth, it’s paved all the way with moderate inclines. From bus stop, it’s walk straight down the cape d’Aguilar road. It’s between the hill on one side and sea view on the other which is the coastal view of Stanley. After about an hour walk, you should arrive at the Radio Transmitting Station with speed breaker or warning signs about trespassing. Well, just go off road. There’s a path that runs along the main road and goes around the station, then you’ll be back on the paved road on the other side. Not long after you passed the station, you’ll see the sign board with fork in the road, where the left path takes you to the lighthouse and right is to the marine reserve, which is where we are heading towards! It’s pretty straightforward from here. You’ll know when you arrive , the view is really quite breathtaking. Find your way down to the rocky shores, walk along the shores and you’ll see the whale bones. Keep going, behind the bones, make way to crab cave where beautiful shots are taken, admire the geological formations and witness the tumultuous waves. Average time: 5 hours round trip (including photos and toilet stops) Distance: approximately 8km Toilet: There are cubicles and public toilets at the village. Replenish stations: There’s local cafe at the village near public toilets (you won’t miss it, there’s a signboard for it and apparently their instant noodles with luncheon are hot item) and there’s another local stores near the destination. Difficulties: ⭐️ Scenic: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ How to get there: - Shau Kei Wan MTR station A3 exit and look for bus no. 9 to Shek O and get off at Cape D’Aguilar (鶴咀) which is approximately 20-25 mins Note: Due to the popularity of Cape D’Aguilar, there are some bus no. 9 that skipped the stop. So make sure you ask of it stops.
