Lantau Beast
This 35-kilometer-long route is a steep, formidable one that will push your legs to the limit as you take on our triple-hill climb challenge.
Along the way, you’ll take in views out above Mui Wo, wind along quiet catchwater roads, take a pitstop at the Big Buddha, before ending the ride along an undulating route past Hong Kong’s longest beach and on into Mui Wo to complete the challenge.
