Route C8 - Pok Fu Lam Reservoir - Hong Kong University
Brief Start at Pok Fu Lam Reservoir Road and walk along the Peak Trail in a reverse direction.  Enter Lugard Road at the Peak to take in the spectacular views of Victoria Harbour on the path skirting around the Peak.  If you follow the trail in the opposite direction along Harlech Road, you will come across a splendid waterfall before arriving at a picnic area.  Walk down Hatton Road to visit the relics of the century-old Pinewood Battery, where the traces of war are still evident.  When walking on the Hong Kong Trail, you will find a wealth of historical attractions such as boundary stones and heritage buildings, and plenty of natural sights for the study of the history and geography of Hong Kong Island.
