Today, I'll start walking along the coast of Hong Kong Island, and see how far I'll get!
-
At one point, I met two people hiking downhill, which gave me a feeling or relief: I would be able to get through there *somewhere*!
Eventually, the view opened up, and revealed the Stanley Peninsula!
I continued on that path, and reached a concrete street again, that led to a water reservoir on the top of the mountain.
That was a neat little sub-adventure! :D

@blinry thanks for taking us with you !

The map I'm following for the "around-the-island trail" denotes a couple of "safe deviations". So far, they seemed to lead around construction sites, for example, and once, to avoid a locked gate (which I realized too late, and which caused me a ~2 km detour. 🤦
But for this one, I'm glad that I didn't follow the deviation, and instead followed the shore!
@blinry Ah, got it. 魔爪石 is in Hong Kong.

And just as I was considering my next steps, *these* folks turn up! :'D @robbi5 @ubahnverleih
We had joked about playing "tag" (and I was carrying an AirTag), but I hadn't *actually* expected to be hunted across the island! xD

We're continuing the hike together, following a water collection canal.

The canal continued curving along, and finally ended in a water reservoir. That was a very pleasant, relatively flat path!
-
The trees are working really hard at reclaiming the city here!
@blinry 🌳💚😍 and thank you for taking us along through that pretty landscape!

@blinry Reminds me on "Wale" und "Walwege" in Trentino, Italy.

We entered peaceful bay, and found this bike graveyard close to a settlement. One person seemed very surprised that three foreigners would pass through here.

@blinry This looks like a place where someone is keeping stolen bikes....

@blinry whyy? 😭

@blinry I'm really curious about the story behind that bicycle graveyard. How did they end up there? Why are they still there?

OH @robbi5: "No blinry, we're *not* going up there!"

Next, we're following up a dry river bed.
"If it's mapped as a path in OSM, we can walk it"?

Next, we balanced along this pipe... 😱
Just kidding.
We won't actually need to do that.
I think.

@blinry "If it's mapped as a path in OSM, we can walk it" is a trap I've fallen into more times than I'd like to admit.

@blinry if you happen to discover a leak in the pipe, I'm interested which color the gel has, orange, white or blue… :3
