Mount Austin Playground

Mount Austin Playground was once the garden to the residence of the former Governor of Hong Kong. The Victorian buildings expressed an elegant and harmonised composition. The green lawn, classical red brick architecture, European pavilions and water fountains make you feel you like you're in another country. This is a place where the newlywed come for weeding pictures.

 

Short Comments: It only takes 5 to 10 minutes by walking uphill along Mt Austin Road next to the Peak Lookout. As it has a big ramp, wheelchair users may require assistance. There are limited dropped kerb, wheelchair users need to go to the Mount Austin Playground by road. We suggest that you think twice about your own conditions before going.

 

Tips: Victoria Peak Garden is about a 30 minutes' walk up the Mount Austin Playground. It is the highest point of Victoria Peak. However it is not recommended for wheelchair users and disabled as it has a much bigger ramp.

Peak Circle Walk

Peak Circle Walk

Peak Circle Walk is one of the few wheelchair friendly hiking trails. It circles around The Peak, and brings you different angles of the vibrant and bustling landscape of Hong Kong. It is a must-go for all visitors.

 

As you start from Harlech Road (or you can start counterclockwise from Lugard Road), you will arrive at the Lugard Falls. During the rainy season, you can enjoy the ravaging fall. Harlech Road is a very easy walk with beautiful scenery. Walk further, and you will arrive Lugard Road. The road was named after Hong Kong governor Sir Frederick John Dealtry Lugard and built between 1913 and 1914. Part of the road is built in wooden planks, and you can have a 360-degree of the Victoria Harbour. It is definitely a good opportunity for photos!
