Publisher's Synopsis

Jade-green peaks, crashing waves, fung shui woods, rocky harbors and ancient walled villages - only a few miles separate all this from one of the world's most crowded cities. Four long-distance trails allow access into this scenic landscape.
The Hong Kong Trail: view the cityscape from above as you discover ancient pathways, highland reservoirs and wartime ruins hidden in the lush country parks
The Wilson Trail: a journey from edge to edge of Hong Kong, across airy uplands from the southern shore to within sight of the Chinese border
The MacLehose Trail: 100 kilometres of the New Territories' greatest natural wonders, from Hong Kong's highest peak to Sai Kung's most magnificent beaches
The Lantau Trail: follow this mountainous circuit of beaches and monasteries to lose yourself in the open wilderness of Hong Kong's largest island
Let these four individual books signpost your way into that other Hong Kong, a wild place where your city-dweller's spirits may be revived. Includes detailed maps covering the four long-distance trails.
