Grassy Hill, Mountain summit in Tsuen Wan District, Hong Kong.
Grassy Hill is a mountain summit rising 647 meters (2,123 feet) above sea level, shaping the landscape between Tsuen Wan, Tai Po, and Sha Tin districts. Multiple established paths of varying difficulty provide access to the peak from different directions.
This mountain formed during the Late Jurassic Period roughly 160 million years ago, shaped by volcanic activity. Its composition of volcanic rocks and tuffs reveals the geological forces that continue to define Hong Kong's terrain.
The MacLehose Trail, one of Hong Kong's most popular hiking routes, passes near the peak and makes this location a frequent gathering spot for local walking groups and nature enthusiasts.
Wear sturdy footwear and bring plenty of water for the hike, as Hong Kong weather can be unpredictable. Starting early in the day and checking conditions before you go help you make the most of your visit.
The peak contributes to the Shing Mun Reservoir catchment area alongside other nearby mountains, playing a hidden role in the region's water supply system. Few visitors realize how this landscape quietly supports Hong Kong's essential infrastructure.
