The start of Hong Kong trail Section 8 is right by the bus stop.
港島徑第8段(龍脊) 的起點 就在巴士站旁邊

From that point, there's really no way to get lost; the path is well signed at every turn (follow the little hikers pictograms).
從這起點,真的沒有辦法會迷路的;  路徑在每一個地點也有很明確的標記(跟著小登山者的標記行吧)

After about 2 hours, you'll arrive at Tai Long Wan beach. You can walk towards Shek-O or take the red minibus that will get you there. From Shek-O, bus #9 will take you back to Shau Kei Wan.
約2小時後,你便抵達大浪灣海灘。 你可以行向石澳,或乘坐紅色小巴也可。回程由石澳坐新巴9號巴士返回筲箕灣
