Now that we are well settled into our new apartment it was time to finally explore the nearby hill called Mount Davis. J suggested we hike it this morning and after reading this very insightful entry I was inspired to do some photo documentation of my own.
Strange little stone sign on the way
Walking up to Mt Davis Road
Looking towards the Peak
Pokfulam area
Pokfulam with sea view
Starting the climb up to the Water Reservoir
Peak view again
More views
At the reservoir.. strange sign - keep off the straight path because it is dangerous??
One of the old rings on the road, used to hold ropes for pulleys to get the building blocks to the top of the mountain to build the fort
Yup - it is still strong!
Top of Mt Davis - the fort ruins
There was some strange modeling going on.
And to balance that awkward encounter we met these B B Gun enthusiast
Walking back down to Victoria Road
This reminded me of Greece
Christmas Tree already out
Lovely!

So we started from Victoria road near the West Island School and climbed up the path with a helpful sign to Mt Davis Road.
