Excursión ciclista de un día de Sha Tin a Sai Kung

This scenic cycling route takes you from the bustling hub of Shatin to the laid-back seaside town of Sai Kung. Starting in Shatin, a popular New Territories district known for its riverside promenade, shopping malls, and access to Tai Wai and HK’s cycling network, you’ll soon leave urban life behind as you wind your way east.

With a distance of just over 26 km, it’s a moderate ride, but expect a fair bit of climbing—almost 600 meters of ascent! The route is mostly paved, but keep an eye out for sections where the surface is less defined. You’ll be rolling along dedicated cycleways and quiet roads for the majority of the ride, perfect for soaking up the lush greenery and mountainous views typical of this part of Hong Kong.

Arriving in Sai Kung, you’ll be greeted by sea breezes and plenty of waterfront cafes—the perfect spot to refuel. Known as the “back garden of Hong Kong,” Sai Kung is famous for its seafood, relaxed vibe, and gateway to stunning hikes and beaches. It’s a great finish to a rewarding ride!
