We will do a Three Booter walk this coming Sunday, 10^th February 2008.  We will walk a part of Stage 7 on the MacLehose trail & Stage 8. It is a reasonably long hike about 15 Kilometres over Tai Mo Shan which is the highest mountain in Hong Kong.

We will meet outside the turnstiles at Sha Tin KCR opposite Delifrance at 11.00 AM and start walking from the station itself.  There is a nice path leading upto the Maclehose trail close to Needle Hill. From there we turn towards Lead Mine pass but we will skip Grassy Hill as it is just boring concrete. Tai Mo Shan at 954 metres is not that difficult and we should be able to make it down to Route Twisk in reasonable time. 

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 rules applies and remember not to be late!

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