Why it's worth it:
---------------------------------------
 |
| Get out at Exit 'B' and get in the mall |
 |
| Get up the escalators... |
 |
| Then up again... |
 |
| Go through the section that goes over the road |
 |
| Immediately down the stairs on the right, as soon as you are out |
 |
| Right on Hei Tung street |
 |
| Gap by the fence... |
 |
| About one kilometer by the sea and train tracks |
 |
| Go in the tunnel |
 |
| Right |
 |
| You are about halfway (the 6km mark or so), if you go straight, the path goes to Mui-Wo. But we're heading left towards Disco-Bay. Much prettier trail too. |
 |
| Views of the Discovery Bay golf course |
 |
| Atop the Tiger Head. The path forward goes down but is steep and slippery |
 |
| All done with the slippery bit. Head left |
 |
| You're in Discovery Bay now. Under the arch is a mall and through, you'll get to Discovery Plaza. Ferry and buses are right there. Hope that was fun... |
