Climate: Tropical monsoon. Cool and humid in winter, hot and rainy from spring through summer, warm and sunny in fall. HK’s climate is seasonal due to alternating monsoon wind direction between winter and summer. Warning signals for tropical cyclones and rain / lighting Summer: 80% humidity.

Ecology & vegetation mostly affected by climatic & sea level changes, as well as human impact. – mostly green, grassy, lush. Influence of human – building of pavements, sign posts etc – to facilitate us to experience the beauty and natural environment – good or bad? Despite Hong Kong's reputation of being intensely urbanized, most of the territory remains undeveloped as the terrain is mostly hilly to mountainous with steep slopes. Most of the territory's urban development exists on Kowloon peninsula, along the northern shores of Hong Kong island and in scattered settlements throughout the New Territories. Hong Kong's long, irregular and curvaceous coastline also affords the territory with many bays, rivers and beaches .

During the briefing, participants will be split into groups of 5 pax in a group where a group leader will be appointed. The group leader will be in-charge of the well-being and accountability of the group, as well as maintain communication with the instructors/teachers/staff. After lunch, you will then proceed to the supermarket to buy food for the trek. During the briefing, instructors will brief you about the food requirements in terms of weight, calorie intake, nutrition value etc – you will then split into groups to buy your own food. Participants will be able to leave some of the belongings not required for the trek at Wu Kwai Sha Youth Village. Pack only what is necessary for the trek
You will trek along part of the famous MacLehose Trail – a 100km long hiking trail that spans across the New Territories from east to west. Oxfam Trailwalker , a major fundraising event in Hong Kong, takes place annually in November on the MacLehose Trail. It is hard to believe that, just beyond Kowloon, Hong Kong has rugged peaks, remote valleys, and ocean coastlines. In these places there is striking natural beauty - and surprising ecological diversity. You will trek within the Sai Kung East Country Park. There is a wide choice of country trails. Some orbit around the coasts, while others travel through rugged, wild terrain. For the first part of the trek, you will trek along the west of Tai Long Wan – comprising of 4 famous beaches (elaborated later) On the 1 st day of the trek, the instructors will assess the physical condition of the group – the route may be modified along the way.
