Sharp Peak was being missed. The last time I had been there was more than a year ago. Luckily on Friday, Dave proposed hiking on the Hong Kong trail. Now, we all know that the HK Trail has no scenery to offer and it is an almost flat (albeit long walk of as long as you want - 50kms). This clearly as not happening and convincing Dave on Sharp Peak was not that difficult (he had never been there!)
So on Saturday, we started walking from Pak Tam Au, reached Sharp Peak in about 2 hours, went down to the beach which took another 2.5 hours, took a 1 hour lunch break, and walked back to the starting point i.e., Pak Tam Au which took as another 1.5 hours i.e., a TOTAL of say 6.5-7 hours which included half an hour of getting lost and a 1 hour (heavenly) lunch break. Felt good to have done some proper hiking after a long long time! But the amount of time we took was a rude reminder of how unfit I am!
