Zustieg

The crag can be approached from either the end of Po Shan Road or Old Peak Road.

From Po Shan Road (Green minibus n°3 from IFC) : Climb up the concrete maintenance staircase to the top of the slope at the end of the road. From the top of the staircase follow an older set of stairs a meter or two higher up until you reach an old, slightly overgrown footpath. Turn left and follow this for 10 minutes until you reach a drainage line.

From Old Peak Road: Take a taxi to 23 Old Peak Road or Green minibus n°2 (from IFC). Follow the flat walking path past the small pagoda, contouring around the hill through jungle. After 5 minutes or so, just after crossing some granite slabs, the path climbs steeply up a narrow flight of stairs before continuing around the hillside to reach the same drainage channel described above. Follow the drainage channel upstream for 5 minutes until you reach the base of a small cliff.

Traverse right along the base of this (fixed rope in place) until you reach the bottom of a fixed line. The fixed line leads approximately 30m up a steep slab to the base of the crag, where a limited amount of space is available.

Zustieg

Walking Approach 1 (MTR South Horizons Station Exit C, Lee Nam Road) – Walk behind the breakwater to where it meets the cliff face and climb over onto the pebble beach. From here, follow a route that contours along the coastline. It’s the start of an exposed traverse to the crag.

Walking Approach 2 (MTR Lei Tung Station Exit B, Ap Lei Chau Summit) – locate a path that leads around behind the Ap Lei Chau Service Reservoir Playground. From behind the playground, the path steepens very quickly up to the summit itself. The summit is fairly flat so quickly leads to an equally steep descent on the other side down to the beach.

There are two approach paths depending on which crag you want to reach.

For Split Boulder, Aquila Crag, Majestic Slabs and September Crag, the approach path starts by some concrete stairs few hundred meters after the Good Hope primary school.

For all the others crags, you have to take the hiking path that brings to the peak. First get to Fei Ha Rd (a small private road turning left from the start of Fei Ngo Shan Road). From here, walking in, on your right there are two paths that goes parallel uphill and join right below the Skyline crag: the first has a fixed rope and follow an old drain canal; the second is just 20 meter further (recommended).

Lat / Long: 22.356012, 114.374081

Übersicht

The crag is formed by basalt columns similar to those seen at classic locations such as Giants Causeway in Ireland, only here the rock has been subjected to a little more in the way of tropical weathering. As such, the rock is mostly solid but has a thin covering of flakey weathered rock that will fall off with use. The top of the crag is very loose and the safest exit is by moving right along the ridge towards the headland. Beware of occasional very large unattached rocks. Helmets are recommended.

Beschreibung

Gear is plentiful throughout nearly all routes, small wires and small to medium cams, and as such it is requested that climbers retain a traditional ethic when climbing here.

A full ropes length is needed for the left hand side of the crag. All the routes completed so far have been up obvious crack systems, however plenty of potential remains for harder face and arête routes remains.

The bottom of the crag is located at a wave cut platform which can get covered by the sea if a big swell is running so its best to visit the crag during low tide / periods of generally calm weather.

https://hongkongclimbing.files.wordpress.com/2013/03/waterfallcrag.pdf

Einschränkungen

This approach can be made in all but high tides. However the bottom of the cliffs are washed by waves if there is a swell running so flat seas are advisable.

Zustieg

The approach will take you about an hour from the gates of the national park in a taxi.

From Sai Kung town take a bus to the country park entrance on Tai Mong Tsai Road. From here it is necessary to take a taxi to the end of the East Dam of High Island Reservoir (by the large hexagonal sea defenses.) Walk to the far end of the sea wall, passing the outcrop of Po Pin Chau, and cross over the fence before continuing along the headland on a small path.

Cross a small stream and ascend to the saddle of the hill (Fa Shan). The path splits into three when you reach the headland. Follow the steep path which cuts directly down the pebble beach (撿豬灣滾石灘 Kim Chu Wan) and carry along the coast, around two head lands (past some otherpotentially worthwhile crags) until Waterfall Rock - Fashion Crag is reached.

Developed by Matt Tranter and Ben George in 2004. Does not get much traffic because of the difficulty in getting here, the lack of bolts and the fact that most people in Hong Kong would rather be poked with sharp sticks than be seen in the New Territories!

The lone big bloc (and several small blocs) on the southern side of Pak Shui Wun beach near the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) is home to a fine collection of mid-grade gems. Originally ‘discovered’ some years ago by Chris Tang, the bloc has recently been brought kicking and screaming into the 2020’s by Gordon Hoi and Matthew Sze who have repeated most of Chris’ lines and added a few of their own too (big thanks to Gordon for the guide info herein).

Beschreibung

Tung Lung’s Big Wall is a multi pitch sport climbs in a stunning situation, especially when a big swell is running.

WARNING: This wall contains many loose blocks, although most routes (particularly those in the higher grades) are on relatively solid rock. It should therefore only be approached by a competent party. If there are any signs of other parties already on the wall extreme caution should be taken when abseiling in. Please do not attempt to clean the blocks off this wall, there’s too many, it’s too dangerous, and it could seriously alter the character of many of the routes as falling blocks smash into them.

Please also note that, other than jumaring up a fixed line or swimming around into Sea Gully (neither of which are particularly desirable), the routes described are the only means of escape once you’ve abseiled in. If you have any doubts of your ability to safely climb the routes please do not attempt to climb on the wall.

Einschränkungen

From Central Ferry Pier No. 4 take the ferry to Sok Kwu Wan, which departs from the left side of the ferry pier (check schedules). The ferries from right side go to Yung Shue Wan and add about 45 minutes to the approach walk so avoid these!

From the ferry pier in Sok Kwu Wan head right and follow the main path past all the sea food restaurants to a small open area. At the far left corner of this square is a staircase and footpath which lead up the hill (signposted to Tung O). Follow this path uphill until a small shelter is reached, approximately 20 minutes. Taking the right hand branch in the footpath leads to the Pagoda Boulders, whilst the left takes you to the Ling Kok Shan Boulders.
