Hong Kong, China

Waterfall Bay Park and Telegraph Bay

On the southwestern side of the island, Waterfall Bay Park is a pleasant destination with nice falls, the Wah Fu estate, and views of Lamma Island. There are 1–2 km of promenade, with folks playing chess, sitting among porcelain deities. Combine with the trails Telegraph Bay, using some connector roads. Best access is via bus.

Trail Running in Hong Kong

Despite the incredible density, some 40% of Hong Kong is protected parks. Many of the country parks are easily accessible. There are also some spectacular trail running opportunities — the Hong Kong Trail on HKI is the most accessible. But there are four long-distance trails in the area, on other islands and the New Territories: the Hong Kong Trail (50 kilometers / 31 miles), the Lantau Trail (70 kilometers / 43.5 miles), the Wilson Trail (78 kilometers / 48.5 miles), and the MacLehose Trail (100 kilometers). A great guide is this article: Trail Running in Hong Kong.
