Cycling day trip from Tuenmen to Tsuen Wan

Get ready for a ride that’ll take you from the quieter outskirts of Tuenmen all the way to the urban heart of Tsuen Wan! Covering around 55 km, this route isn’t for the faint of heart—expect a good bit of climbing (almost 2,000 meters in ascent!), but the views from those higher stretches make the effort worthwhile. Along the way, you’ll cruise through a real mix of surfaces and scenery: some stretches are smooth and paved, others a bit more adventurous, with only about a third being fully paved.

On the quieter country roads and paths, you’ll spot rolling hills and pockets of greenery. As you approach Tsuen Wan, the route shifts gears and you’ll feel the urban buzz picking up. Tsuen Wan itself is a major hub in the western New Territories, packed with food, shopping, and plenty of history as one of the first satellite towns in Hong Kong. If you’re looking for a challenging ride that blends Hong Kong’s rural landscapes with urban energy, this one’s for you!
