Lung Fu Shan, Mountain summit in Central and Western District, Hong Kong.
Lung Fu Shan is a 253-meter mountain peak on Hong Kong Island that marks a natural boundary between Victoria Peak, Mount Davis, and High West. The summit sits within a country park featuring fitness trails and preserved military structures from earlier decades.
The historic boundary of Victoria city once ended at the 210-meter contour on the northern side, marking the edge of early settlement expansion. This geographical line shaped the urban layout of the area and remains part of the landscape's division today.
The university campus sits on the northeastern slopes, weaving education into the natural landscape of this area. The mountain becomes part of daily life for students and staff who move through both built and green spaces.
A fitness trail of about 2,750 meters starts from Pinewood Garden and passes several viewpoints and preserved structures along the way. The path has clear markings and multiple entry points, making it accessible for visitors with different abilities.
The Environmental Education Centre hosts BioBlitz events to monitor local animal species across this country park, one of Hong Kong's smallest reserves. Visitors might encounter field researchers collecting data during their walk.
