Why it's worth it:
-----------------------------
 |
| Green minibus 20K at Tai Po Market MTR station |
 |
| Sam Mun Tsai village where you will get off the bus. There is a roundabout. Note the Royal China Aqua Garden restaurant in the back |
 |
| Just off the bus, back a few meters, there are stairs. Take them and go left on Sai Mun Tsai road. |
 |
| After you have exited the village, you will start an easy and short climb on the first hill of the day. Tombs will be on your left and right everywhere... |
 |
| ... and very nice views. |
 |
| Left here. |
 |
| Left here again. About 15 minutes into your hike. |
 |
| Tombolo between the two hills. |
 |
| Head right after the tombolo. There is a path along the shore. |
 |
| Leave the shore at this point and go back on the path on the left. You will just keep going on the path and along the shore until you reach a very big rock (there's a rope to climb it). That's the viewpoint and the end of the trail. Retrace your steps all the way back to the bus stop. |
