You start on a rocky trail where the inland forest meets the gulf: humidity clings to the leaves and every step pulls you higher toward Hon En's ridgeline. The 2.5 km ascent is compact but varied—steep switchbacks, exposed roots and short rock steps—and it opens onto a raw summit where the sea unfurls in a broad blue arc.
