Mount Nicholson, Mountain summit in Hong Kong Island, China.
Mount Nicholson rises 430 meters above sea level, featuring rocky steps, natural formations, and microwave equipment at its peak for television broadcasting services.
The mountain received its name from Lieutenant W.C.A. Nicholson of the Hong Kong Volunteer Corps and hosted the first Rover Moot in Hong Kong during August 1940.
The southern face contains a designated fung shui wood, recognized as a Site of Special Scientific Interest since 1993, preserving native Hong Kong plant species.
Access to the hiking trail begins near Wong Nai Chung Gap Road, with multiple bus connections available, leading through Black's Link to Aberdeen Country Park.
The mountain contains distinctive rock formations, including Face Mask Rock and bird-shaped structures, visible along the ascending trail toward the summit.
