Mount Stenhouse or Shan Tei Tong (Chinese: 山地塘/陰山) is the highest peak on Lamma Island in Hong Kong, with a height of 353 metres (1,158 ft) above sea level.[1][2]

Mount Stenhouse is to the right of Sok Kwu Wan Village. Taken in August 2016.

It is probably named after Humphrey Fleming Senhouse, but acquired a misspelling over time.

Access

The paths leading up to the summit are rocky and not maintained by the government.[2] Only experienced hikers should summit this peak.
