A few weekends ago I made the long trip down to Central, and then up to Victoria Peak. I believe this is one of the highest places in all of Hong Kong and offered some fantastic views.
To travel up the Peak I took the Peak Tram. This was a cable car than ran on the steepest set of rails I had ever seen. As we traveled up the track, the buildings outside seemed to be leaning. At the steepest part of the track, it is a 27 degree incline. The trip was about 7 minutes to climb 1,365 meters, which is about .84 miles.
Once I got to the top there was a large shopping area with a viewing center, and then many outdoor paths that wrapped around the peak. Here are some pictures I took that overlook the Central part of Hong Kong.
