Hong Kong is remarkable because you can step from busy urban areas into peaceful countryside in minutes. That's particularly true for the Dragon's Back trail.

This trail is the city's finest and most surprising ramble and you're so close to the city, but could hardly feel farther away.

Once you leave Wong Nei Chung Gap and enter the Tai Tam Park, this is rural walking at its best.
