Kau Nga Ling, Mountain chain in Lantau Island, Hong Kong.

The 539-meter mountain range on Lantau Island contains three sections - West, Middle, and East Kau Nga - forming sharp peaks resembling dog teeth.

The mountain area served as a strategic observation point during military operations, with remaining installations visible along several paths.

The Chinese name, meaning Dog Teeth Range, reflects local traditional naming practices based on natural formations visible in the landscape.

Hikers need to carry sufficient water, wear proper footwear, and check weather conditions before attempting the technically demanding trails.

The Lifeline section between West and Middle Kau Nga features a narrow path allowing only one person to cross at any time.
