Trail description

Often called the hardest stretch of the whole trail, Section 4 traverses the high ridge of Ma On Shan and Buffalo Hill. The path rolls over a series of grassy summits with sweeping views of Tolo Harbour and the Sai Kung hills. Long, exposed and physically demanding, it finishes at Tate's Cairn above the Kowloon reservoirs.
