Mountain Biking the Maclehose Trail: Conquering Hong Kong's Famous Trail

We start this series with arguably Hong Kong's most well known trail, the Maclehose! Spanning 100 kilometres across the New Territories, we explore this stunning route from west to east, starting in Tuen Mun and finishing up in Sai Kung. Beginning the first morning in Tuen Mun, we then burst through Tai Lam Country Park and over Tai Mo Shan before finishing up at Shing Mun Reservoir by nightfall. On day two, continuing onto the central section of the Maclehose Trail, we navigate the hilltop trails north of Kowloon. Passing Kowloon Reservoir and Lion Rock on the way to Tate’s Cairn. Riding Stage 4 on the third day took us away from the urban areas of Kowloon and towards the more remote countryside of Ma On Shan Country Park. Had hoped to potentially ride further on this day, but progress was checked by a mechanical issue. Returning with the bicycle fully repaired, the Sai Kung sections lay in wait for what proved be a spectacular final day of this expedition 💪🏼😎 Four more trails to come! 00:00 Intro/Arrival in Tuen Mun 00:54 Stage 10 03:02 Stage 9 04:34 Stage 8 07:06 Stage 7 07:34 Stage 6 10:53 Stage 5 13:33 Stage 4 18:14 Stage 3 21:42 Stage 2 30:12 Stage 1
