On second day of the outing, 24 March 2019 the team took a city bus to Big Wave Bay and did a reversed loop of Hong Kong Trail 50km. At the trail head (or the end point of the trail), the Distance Post is numbered at H100 and it is called Section 8. The starting point H001 or Section 1 is located at Victoria Peak.
This is a scenic trail where one can view the sea and also passing by a dam. The weather on that day was cloudy, perfect for outing; while we were at the Dragon's Back, it was very windy.
By the time we emerged from the trail (end of Section 5 with a Distance Post of number H052), it was 4pm. So we walked on the tar road for about 1km to the nearby petrol station to replenish our drinks, and went to a nearby bus stop and catch a bus home.
