Why you will like it

  • Wutong Mountain, 944 m — on a clear morning you see Hong Kong, the bay and the whole city at once.
  • A guided hike at your pace, with the option to take the shuttle most of the way up.
  • Afternoon on Dameisha beach: swim, sit, or just watch the container ships go past.
  • Two sides of Shenzhen most visitors never realise exist.

Included

English-speaking guide, private transfer, breakfast and drinking water.

Not included

Lunch, shuttle tickets on the mountain and travel insurance.

Good to know

  • Proper walking shoes required. The ridge path is uneven and can be slippery after rain.
  • The mountain is significantly cooler and windier than the city — bring a layer year-round.

Common questions

How hard is the hike?

Moderate. Roughly two hours up at an easy pace, and a shuttle covers most of the climb if you prefer.

What if the weather is bad?

If the summit is closed or unsafe we switch to the coastal route for the full day and tell you the evening before.
