When you arrive in the Kowloon Peninsula by rail, car or MTR (the local Mass Transit Rail system), you will most likely observe a large imposing rock in the horizon of Kowloon Tong. This is the "Lion Rock", aptly named because from certain angles, the profile of the crag resembles that of a lion. This granite Lion stands at 495 meters high with the crag at about 75 meters, offering difficulties up to F7b+ (5.12c), and a spectacular view of Kowloon in the backdrop. There are two approaches to the Lion, one from the east and the other west, with the majority of routes being two to three pitches long, with reliable bolt protection in place. There are also some challenging lines for traditional climbers on this crag, these being more and more rare as local climbers inevitably favor the convenience, efficiency and safety of bolted routes. The Lion Rock crag requires a fair amount of local knowledge to tackle it safely, it is recommended that foreign climbers be accompanied by experienced locals. 

Other than Tung Lung and the Lion, one area that's keeping locals busy at the moment is "Jingle Bell Rock" located in Sai Kung, East New Territories. Squatting at about 30 meters high, this site is under rapid development, and is increasingly popular for its endless rock formations and a delectable choice of big sheer walls. Here, you get face climbing with small crimps, awesome crags for traditional climbing, plus probably 10 or more routes could be set up with difficulties up to F7b (5.12b).
