Latest news - please note the HK Government now is requesting all participants take a PCR test within 48 hours of the race and have the PCR test results available on race day for checking when required. We recommend the cheapest way to do this is choose one of the govt locations across HK (HKD 240) at https://www.communitytest.gov.hk/en/ as need to do within 48hrs of event). The Hong Kong government can change the health regulations at any time without any notice.

 

A great introductory course for the HK50 series as this first 24km of 50km category is not high in elevation and rolling flat areas along the HK trail (Hong Kong Trail with small additional loop around Mt Bennet) to make up lots of kilometers and not terribly difficult until you hit the 2nd half with lots of short steep climbs going around Mt Parker, then the fun starts with Mt Butler, Jardines Lookout and Violet Hill to add to the fun and pain. The course for the 24km category is same on the HK trail as the first 24km of the 50km category.
