October is the best timing for hiking in Hong Kong with beautiful weather. Also, October is a good month for me and us. Jan 
After we came back from London, we went for hiking on the next day. This time, we challenged the highest peak in Hong Kong, with an elevation of 957 m - Tai Mo Shan(大帽山). It is also the tallest coastal peak in Southern China and second tallest coastal peak in China after Mount Lao, and located at approximately the geographical centre of the New Territories.
There were two trails to reach the top of Tai Mo Shan. The one we chose is the trail via Nu Tung Chai waterfall. Wow we both were so excited! Seems like Jan enjoyed a lot being into the water! For sure I enjoy watching him play like a kid :) Nu Tung Chai Waterfall consists of 4 waterfalls at different altitudes. From bottom to top, you will see Bottom Fall (Fall under the well), Middle Fall (Horse Tail Fall), Main Fall (Long Fall) and Scatter Fall.
Water from the mountain always heal our body well! After one hour hike I already could feel the sweat all over my body. The clean and cold water kept us alive! Whenever we passed the river, I just rewashed my towel and wiped my face with it! Of course, we should do the same thing as Jan did which is better - jumped into the water without thinking haha!
I love waterfall so much since I was a little kid. Whenever looking at it, I can feel how much energy I receive from the power of water. The sound from the waterfall actually can make me calm and peaceful.
After around 2 hours or more, we reached the top of Tai Mo Shun. For him, its just a piece of cake. He taught me how to breathe correctly during walking and it helped. However, for me, this hike brought me sour legs and lower back for few days. Plus we ran down fast from the top to the bottom of the mountain. I know its pretty crazy...
Let's keep hiking as one of our hobbies in Hong Kong and become so fit and healthy here :)
