Hike for Hospice is an annual fundraising event organised by the Society for the Promotion of Hospice Care. Every year, our Hike Organising Committee selects a beautiful yet challenging routes for hikers. The upcoming Hike for Hospice will be held at Hok Tau, Fanling on Sunday 22 February 2009. This year, we will go to the western portion of the Park Sin Leng Country Park. Hikers have a choice of tree routes: Scenic Route (12km), High Route (12km) and Arduous Route (18km). You could participate in the Hike on individual or team basis. If you would like to have a family walk, Scenic Route will be an ideal one for you. But if you would like to have a challenge for yourself, you may take the High or Arduous Routes.

Prizes will be awarded to the fastest teams and individuals, and the team and individual who have raised the most money. Complimentary breakfast, traditional curry lunch and return transportation services are provided to all participants.
