Sizzling, summery days may deter some of us from hitting the trails, especially with little ones in tow. However, Hong Kong’s beauty is vast – and Little Hawaii Trail reminds us that there is something tailored for every kind of hiker. This relatively easy trail offers a respite from the heat with tree-shaded areas, gently-sloped paths, and its prime appeal – two quaint waterfalls – perfect for cooling down and splashing fun!
Choose from one of two starting points – Po Lam or Tseng Lan Shue. If coming from the Po Lam MTR, take exit C and walk to Po Hong Road towards Tseung Kwan O Village. Follow the path towards Au Tau, and from there, you will see the starting point of Little Hawaii Trail. Once on the trail, relish in the views of the lush greenery, mountainous landscapes, and the cascading streams.
Follow the path for about 15 minutes until you reach the first waterfall, Little Hawaii Falls, where tiny and big adventurers alike will be thrilled to climb rocks and splash around.
Spare some time for a second splash at the picturesque Lin Yuen Terrace Falls. Cross the bridge and continue walking downhill along Little Hawaii Trail, turning right at the intersection. A short 15-minute walk will lead you straight into this serene oasis – providing a canopy of trees and clear cascades.
Kids and adults will equally enjoy this trail – since you’ll get a bit of everything – the fresh outdoors, scenic beauty, open spaces, and quick walks to water-filled, family-friendly fun!
An easy hiking trail surrounded by luscious greenery and family-friendly waterfalls to splash and play in!
