Among all types of sports activities, jogging appears to be the most environmentally friendly
item since limited gear is required and little waste is produced.
Why not jog in Kowloon East, where there is a 7km round-trip jogging route??
You can start at ZCB, which is the first-ever zero carbon building in Hong Kong.

It is also carpeted as Hong Kong’s first-ever lush native woodland. The public are welcome to join guided tours to visit ZCB.
The Council has taken part in the “Climate Change and My Smart City”
