This was the last pre trip activity. We gathered at Tuen Wan MTR station and took minibus to the venue. When we were taking group photo before we walked the trail, there were big herds of monkeys. We were so scared as this was the first time for us to see the monkey in real life. This route was more challenging than the previous one as the path is longer, the weather was cooler and there are more slopes. Therefore, Many of our teammates felt exhausted at the destination. We took a lot of picture as the view was great. Click gallery for photos we took!
