Event Information (100km)

Thank you for continuing to support the Oxfam Trailwalker (OTW).

The OTW is a very challenging activity. Participants have to hike up 23 hills/mountains, including Tai Mo Shan – the highest of them all, climbing a total of about 4,830 meters. It also involves many uphill and rugged roads. As such, we would strong advise participants to prepare in advance and familiarise themselves with all sections of the trail before the event.

The donations raised through the OTW will be used for local and global poverty alleviation projects – from providing emergency relief to improving the livelihoods of those living in poverty. For more details, please visit Oxfam’s website: https://www.oxfam.org.hk
