Venue | Tai Tam Barbecue Area No. 2 | ||
This route is quite demanding, with a total elevation gain of 1609 metres. The first half is quite easy to run. Runners start at Tai Tam Barbecue Area Site No. 2 and then continue to Quarry Gap and Sir Cecil’s Ride, soon climbing Siu Ma Shan and Jardine’s Lookout to enjoy the views of the Central metropolis and Victoria Harbour.
The second half of the route is where things get tough. The beautiful view of Tai Tam Reservoir may relieve the harshness of the route somewhat. However, the infamous, constant steps of the Twins and Violet Hill will challenge the thighs of all participants. The key to victory is to keep your energy up for the hills.
This is a fast loop in the Tai Tam Country Park area. Participants run along Tai Tam Reservoir Road for 1 km, then make a sharp turn at the end of the dam of Wong Nai Chung Reservoir and take the steps of Tai Tam Country Trail. Then they will reach the top of Violet Hill and going back to Hong Kong Parkview via Wilson Trail. When they hit the road, turn right and run for 650 metres to the finish. The route is safe and easy to run, and children will enjoy running in the woods and on the hilltops.
