The weather does seem to be getting better so it is time to do a nice long hike out in the New Territories. The forecast is for sunny skies and milder temperature so the plan for this weekend to do the Pat Sing Leng range and hopefully we can get some nice views.

We will meet outside the turnstiles at Tai Po Market KCR at 10.30 AM near the Uptown Plaza Exit and take the minibus from there to the starting point.  We will try and find a path called the Monkey trail up to the first summit of the Pat Sing Leng range and then follow the Wilson Trail over the ridge. These are a series of eight peaks with lots of ups and downs. The views from these hills are possibly some of the best in Hong Kong - weather permitting of course. We will be doing several hills over 600 metres.  After the eight summits of Pat Sing leng we will warm down by doing an additional one which is as yet undecided.

If it is raining or threatening to rain (thunderstorm warning), the walk will be cancelled. If in doubt on the morning of the walk, call 8209-0517. The ten minute waiting rule applies and remember not to be late!

Bring all the usual gear, in particular lots of water, good shoes, a torch and a hat. Also, bring some lunch for along the way.
