Hiking 60 Miles on the MacLehose Trail in Hong Kong

My friend Ryan and I spent 4 days hiking the 60-mile MacLehose Trail across Hong Kong Tom: There used to be an annual event called Trailwalker during which a few thousand people in teams of 4 had 48 hours to cover the Maclehose Trail. Gurkha teams would run the whole way and complete it in 13-14 hours. I did it twice in consecutive years in 1992 and 1993. My teams aim was to beat 24 hours. The only reason I did it twice was our 26 hour attempt in 1992!

Started watching your hiking videos and love them. It's kind of like an Anthony Bourdain exploration of the world through hiking. Would you consider hiking Taiwan? My husband and I hiked a small section in 2012 and it was beautiful. Taiwan has the highest density of high mountains in the world and fantastic gorges.

You even had an Octopus card, WOW! I thought you might have seen some wild boars as well. You 2 have traveled where I never ever have been all my life here. Heard about how pretty and stunning the scenes are but never have anything to ignite me to visit. It's a shame indeed.

honestly, it's really being grateful to see Vietsub in your video, I'm not good at English and some Vietnamese who's watching your video also. your videos make me have more strong to discover the world, thank you and hope you get safe on every trail you go

What is it about viewing gorgeous scenery and only the sound of mens footsteps? somehow I find it sounds right together. My wife thinks I am nuts, she does not even notice them. lol. Oh well. maybe its just me.

Oh, how I miss Hong Kong, my second home! Next time I am able to come back to HK, I will def hike the MacLehose trail (unless I happen to visit in summer, that'll be a bit too hot and humid for me then hahah)

I summit Sharp Peak when it was 100 degrees F and so humid. Almost died of heat exhaustion but so worth it! Watched them rescue someone with a chopper off a neighboring peak haha.

I have a question. When you found its a good time for filming. Do you have like a plan where you should shoot, or you film every 30min for example? Keeo up the content!

Such a dangerous trail! My friend did this exact route and got eaten by a panda bear. I told him to stay away from a bamboo tent
