Since 2013, The North Face has been passionately promoting trail running through the TNF 100 Hong Kong. Upholding their mission of "Never Stop Exploring," this event encourages the public to step out of the bustling city to explore the essence of Hong Kong's natural beauty, and challenge themselves by pushing beyond limits.
With the growing awareness of outdoor exploration and well-being, The North Face continuously explores new possibilities to create memorable trail running experiences for runners. As the event approaches its 10th anniversary, exciting additions have been made to the race line up.
In addition to the standard 100K race, this edition introduces brand-new 14K and 55K courses. These additions aim to attract new runners while challenging experienced runners to push themselves further. Additionally, a 100K Relay Race has been included for the first time, allowing participants to form mixed gender teams of four. Each team member will contribute their expertise to complete the course together, highlighting that trail running is not only an individual sport but also a collective endeavour that fosters connections and encourages the spirit of sportsmanship.
A total of 2,500 slots are available for all three races, with 1,200 slots for the 14K race, 800 slots for the 55K race, 500 slots for the 100K race and 25 teams (each consisting of four participants and must be mixed genders). General registration for these new challenges opens on July 17 at 4:00 PM.

由林村許願廣場出發 全新路線帶領跑手以不同角度探索香港山野
The varied topography of Hong Kong offers an exhilarating and challenging environment for trail running enthusiasts. This year’s TNF 100 Hong Kong features a brand-new route that allows runners to explore the serene outskirts of Hong Kong from various angles, creating a truly unique and memorable trail running experience.
All races will start and finish at the Lam Tsuen Wishing Square, a significant cultural heritage site symbolizing good fortune. The 100K individual and relay races will kick off at 10:00PM on December 13, allowing racers to uncover the peaceful and tranquil side of Hong Kong and explore its nighttime beauty. In the 100K race, racers will begin by surmounting Pak Tai To Yan and navigating the challenging Long Shan route. After passing the Hok Tau Reservoir, they will rapidly ascend to the Ping Fung Shan and Wong Leng area. Climbing through the mountainous Pat Sin Leng, they will then make a gradual descent towards the Wu Kau Tang Campsite. Passing by several serene ancient villages in the northeastern part of Hong Kong, including Lai Chi Wo, Luk Keng, So Lo Pun and Yung Shue Au, they will arrive back at sea level in Luk Keng before climbing back along the ridgeline of Wong Leng and Ping Fung Shan. Crossing Cloudy Hill, they will conquer Tai Mo Shan, Hong Kong’s highest point, via the Lung Mun Country Trail. After enjoying these scenic stretches, they will enter the peaceful Lam Tsuen Valley and pass through Ng Tung Chai. After conquering the challenging ascents of Tai To Yan and running a gorgeous ridge to Pak Tai To Yan, they will pass through Ngau Kwu Leng Trail and descend to the finishing line back at Lam Tsuen Wishing Square.
In the 55K challenge, racers will start at 8:00AM on December 14, surmounting Pak Tai To Yan and traversing Cloudy Hill through the Wilson Trail. They will then merge with the 100K racers and compete on the same remaining course to the finishing line. Meanwhile, the 14K race racers will start at 9:00AM on December 15, first passing through the Ngau Kwu Leng Trail and ascending Pak Tai To Yan, rewarded with spectacular views along the way.
