The "HK Aviation Series" is a Geocaching Power Trail, placed along the "Hong Kong Airport Trail", that has been recently renovated, from the Ancient Kiln Park and Antiquities Garden, by Scenic Hill at the southern end of Chek Lap Kok, running under the expressway and along the eastern coastline to the Hong Kong Border Crossing Facilities, located on a reclaimed artificial island at the north-east area of the Airport. The jogging track was refurbished and encompasses both history and nature along its route. From the trail you get fantastic views to the east of Chek Lap Kok, to Tung Chung and over to the New Territories. You will walk under the flight path of the South Runway, getting close up with the planes and get to see many fishermen and women along the coast. As an added bonus, you will also have a chance to grab few of the other already established geocaches at the Airport. There are 15 caches in the “HK Aviation Series” and each one will share a bit of Hong Kong’s Aviation History.
