Interested in checking out the first section of the 50/35/22km Sai Kung 50 course as will take participants who sign up from the start at Pak Tam Chung over Tai Cham Koi (408m) down Lok Wu Trail and long technical steep section to Chek Keng beach section, then along MacLehose to Pak Tam Village and see the single track to the beautiful Tai Lo Wan beach, over the Ham Tin Wan headland and buy drinks (or food) at popular Ham Tin Wan restaurant, then along the MacLehose until just before Sai Wan and taking a single track trail over Lo Tei Tun which is always fun as nobody up there and usually beautiful views this time of year. Then down to Sai Wan Road pagoda - around 16km and all can decide if want to finish there and catch minibus back to Sai Kung (runs every 30min usually) or have fun hiking/running the 6km along the Sai Wan Road until Tai Mong Tsai Road and back to Pak Tam Chung to get some noodles/drink and transport home.
