The Oxfam Trailwalker (OTW) is one of the largest fundraising sporting events in Hong Kong. The funds raised through the OTW will be used for Oxfam Hong Kong’s (OHK’s) local and global poverty alleviation projects – from providing emergency relief to improving the livelihoods of those living in poverty. For more details, please visit OHK’s website (https://www.oxfam.org.hk).
The event this year has been scheduled for 20 to 22 November 2026 (Friday to Sunday). The 100 km trail starts from Pak Tam Chung in Sai Kung and finishes at Harrow International School Hong Kong in Tuen Mun. There are nine checkpoints and one control point along the route.
The OTW route is challenging. Participants are therefore encouraged to familiarise themselves with the entire route and its individual sections in advance, and to carefully consider and assess their own physical condition before the event, in order to ensure their safety and the successful completion of the challenge.
