This is one of the steepest peaks in Hong Kong and it stands at 344m. On a clear day, you&#8217;ll get a magnificent view from the top. You&#8217;ll overlook Clear Water Bay, and see Sharp Peak (\u86ba\u86c7\u5c16) in Sai Kung at a distance, as well as Hong Kong island and Kowloon.<br \/>\nTo get there, we took green minibus 103M from Tsueng Kwan O mtr station (exit A1) and stopped at the bus stop just in front of the Clear Water Bay country trail entrance along Clear Water Bay road (\u6e05\u6c34\u7063\u9053).<br \/>\nIn this picture, you see the peak of High Junk Peak in the foreground, and the group of islands in the distance is known as the Nine Pin Islands (\u679c\u6d32\u7fa4\u5cf6).<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7059\/6822724282_b81e2f41f4.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"374\" alt=\"IMG_1189\"><\/a><\/br><br \/>\nComing down High Junk Peak, you can see Po Toi O (\u5e03\u888b\u6fb3), a fishing village. According to Wikipedia, the village is named as such &#8211; \u5e03\u888b means &#8220;sack&#8221; &#8211; because it is situated at a bay shaped like a sack. From the picture above, I guess it does resemble it somewhat!<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7056\/6968848717_bce1a95481.jpg\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" alt=\"IMG_1193\"><\/a><\/br><br \/>\nAfter our hike, we sat down to a late lunch at Fai Kee Seafood restaurant where we had a delicious plate of <i>uni<\/i> (aka sea urchin) fried rice (HKD180). Yum yum. Po Toi O is a sleepy little village with a nice laid-back charm to it &#8211; another gem of a place in HK. Must come back again for a more hearty meal.<br \/>\nThere is, of course, an easier way to get to Po Toi O. Either take a taxi from Po Lam (\u5bf6\u7433) mtr station or green minibus 16 from the Po Lam bus terminus (just next to the mtr station).<br \/>\n\u767c\u8a18\u6d77\u9bae\u9152\u5bb6 Fai Kee Seafood Restaurant<br \/>\n\u897f\u8ca2\u6e05\u6c34\u7063\u5e03\u888b\u6fb3\u78bc\u982d7\u865fA\u8216 7A Po Toi O Ferry, Sai Kung<br \/>\nTel: +852 2719 9129<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wanting to get in some hillwork last Saturday, I hiked up High Junk Peak (\u91e3\u9b5a\u7fc1) last Saturday with a friend.
