Overview

About this route

0

Important – don't follow the map exactly (this tool didn't allow me to mark the exact route)! See the points of interest before setting off. For clarification, don't turn left on to Ching Cheung Road (a motorway) at its junction with Castle Peak Road – Kwai Chung; instead stay on Castle Peak Road all the way to Tai Po Road, then turn sharply left there. You'll have to push your pushbike for a hundred metres or so (this is also marked on the map) cos cycles are banned for that short section but it's not too far.

Points of interest along the route

  1. Point of interest after 45.3 km

    Keep going straight here along Castle Peak Road – this tool doesn't allow me to map the proper route!

  2. Point of interest after 45.8 km

    Turn left here to stay on Castle Peak Road.

  3. Point of interest after 47.1 km

    Turn sharply left here to start ascending up Tai Po Road (a dual carriageway at this point).

  4. Point of interest after 47.1 km

    This is where you have to dismount and push your cycle on the pavement on the left side of the road.

  5. Point of interest after 47.1 km

    On the pavement, bear left here and use the footway underneath the leftmost road to get to the other side.

  6. Point of interest after 47.1 km

    Use the middle lane to continue on towards the proper motorway.

  7. Point of interest after 47.1 km

    Cross the road here at the pedestrian crossing (watch out – there are no signals!)

  8. Point of interest after 47.2 km

    I think this is where it's legal to get back on your pushbike.

  9. Point of interest after 51.6 km

    If you want, you can stay on the main road and continue on to the right – the signs banning cycles are further down.

  10. Point of interest after 53 km

    If you stay on the main road (see the earlier point of interest), you have to bear left here and exit the motorway using the slip road. Don't worry, cycling is still allowed even though it doesn't look that way! On the right side you'll see two 'no cycles' signs.
