Most hikers come to Lantau Island to conquer the Twin Peak (Lantau Peak and Sunset Peak). Although they are the highest mountains in Lantau Island, people can hardly see the Silver Mine Bay because it is blocked by Lin Fa Shan, the 6th highest hill in Hong Kong.
Lin Fa Shan is ignored by most people, but the scene on the east side of the peak will not let you down. You can take pictures on huge rocks and enjoy the bird view of Silver Mine Bay and Mui Wo Ferry Pier.

How to Get There:
Central MTR Station -> Central Ferry Pier No. 6 -> Walk along South Lantau Road (Lantau Trail Stage 1) -> Climb uphill into Nam Sham (Lantau Trail Stage 2) -> Turn right at Sheung Tung Au (before you reach Yi Tung Shan) -> You can see Lin Fa Shan in front of you

The picture you took from Lin Fa shan is amazing! I am going to HK tomorrow, may you please let me know how to get there? I hardly find the information on internet.
Thank you so much for your help in advance.

Hi Sandy, I am glad you like the pics.
To get there, you can take a ferry from Central to Mui Wo. It’s about 2 hours walk from Mui Wo Ferry to Lin Fa Shan.

Hi Kurly,
I have updated the direction to Lin Fa Shan in the article with Google Maps.
