START

香港

The route passes along the Hong Kong Trail (港島徑),

Hong Kong Island’s famous through-hike trail that opened in 1985 and runs 50 km in 8 sections from The Peak to Big Wave Bay on the eastern side of the island.

The peak section taken by course, namely Victoria Peak (The Peak), stands at about 552 m above sea level and is the highest point on Hong Kong Island.

The Pok Fu Lam Reservoir (薄扶林水塘) on the course was completed in 1863 and is Hong Kong’s first reservoir, with more than 150 years of history.

The Middle Gap Road (中峽道) and Black's Link (布力徑) section connects quiet residential areas with ridge-top paths,

offering both dense woodland and harbor views right in the middle of the city.

Typical race-season temperature: around 17°C (63°F): Short sleeves — hydrate for the warmth

Transit card

As part of the RunAround trail series, this event likely runs in a country-park area reached by MTR plus a connecting bus, minibus or taxi (similar to other RunAround venues such as Sai Kung). Octopus card is the standard for MTR, buses and minibuses, available/toppable at any station or convenience store; contactless bank cards work on the MTR but minibuses often need Octopus or cash.

Confirm the exact venue closer to race day for the nearest MTR exit and connecting route.

READY TO RUN

From race morning to after the finish.

Your start time, fuel and bag drop.
Know them ahead and the run feels easier.

The race starts and finishes at Aberdeen Park (傷健樂園) in Aberdeen on Hong Kong Island.

As there is no MTR station directly in the Aberdeen area,

most runners travel on foot or by bus from Wong Chuk Hang Station on the MTR South Island Line, the nearest station.

Hong Kong enters its dry season in December, bringing lower humidity and relatively cool temperatures, making it a popular time for trail running.

Registration is available through the njuko race platform for either the individual event or the team event for groups of three.

Times are local to Hong Kong. Check the latest official information before the race.
