A hiker in his forties was airlifted to hospital and later pronounced dead after passing out on a trail on Hong Kong Island on Sunday.
Police said they received a report at 2.16pm that the man had collapsed on the Hong Kong Trail, near Parker Avenue on Siu Ma Shan.
A government helicopter airlifted the hiker to Pamela Youde Nethersole Eastern Hospital in Chai Wan, where he was later certified dead.
Police are investigating the cause of his death.
The 50km trail runs from Victoria Peak to Big Wave Bay on Hong Kong Island and has eight sections of varying difficulty. Siu Ma Shan, a 424-metre (1,391 feet) hill, is located in Tai Tam Country Park.
Last Sunday, a 63-year-old man died after collapsing during a hike on Robin’s Nest Country Trail near the border with mainland China.
He was also transported to the same hospital for treatment and later pronounced dead.
