The Beastly Challenger! I really like this mountain and it does pay off when you get to the top of it. You will have to use your hands to climb the rocky part of the mountain, so make sure u have some gloves (optional).

THE SUMMIT
Picturing at this angle makes it a bit more dramatic because I've got the TAI LONG WAN  beach down below. Once you get up here, Sai Kung East Country Park Valley will emerge. 

This is taken from the summit...to show you the luscious landscape of Tai Long Wan. Head down to the beach and take plunge into the cool, clean and clear water.  

There are several restaurants that serves food and beverages for all their guests. This gets really busy on the weekend and public holidays because plenty of campers, island hoppers, locals and hikers get their pit stop here.
