The Lantau Trail reaches Hong Kong’s second-highest peak, making this a distinct hiking choice alongside Ngong Ping’s Buddhist landmarks. Its Chinese name, Fung Wong Shan, means Phoenix Mountain and refers to a pair of peaks. A summit sunrise is the attraction for many walkers, but exposed conditions can determine how much there is to see.
Useful to know
Check the mountain weather before committing to a summit walk; strong wind and fog can affect the outing.
Plan Lantau Peak as a hike rather than a short extension of the Big Buddha visit.
