TOPO Lantau Trail 70
The Trail HubAbout the race
Lantau 70 has been part of Hong Kong's trail running story for more than a decade, and the route is the reason. It follows the full Lantau Trail, a loop that climbs out of Mui Wo to Ngong Ping, drops to the fishing town of Tai O, runs the southern coast to Shui Hau and comes back over the Lantau ridges to the finish at Mui Wo.
It is a daytime race through everything Hong Kong trails do best: long staircases, open ridge lines, exposed coastal sections and heat. Race the full 66 km solo, or split it four ways with your team.
Distance and climb: 66 km with 3,500 m+ of climb, for both the solo and the relay. Start 8:30 AM, Saturday 20 March 2027, at Silvermine Beach Resort, Mui Wo.
Relay legs (team of 4):
- Leg 1: Mui Wo to Ngong Ping, 14 km
- Leg 2: Ngong Ping to Tai O, 13 km
- Leg 3: Tai O to Shui Hau, 18 km
- Leg 4: Shui Hau to Mui Wo, 20 km
