Contrary to popular belief, the peak of Braemar Hill lies on the eastern end of Braemar Hill Road instead of the western end, where the ascent towards Red Incense Summit is noticeably steeper. Hikers often misidentify Red Incense Summit and nearby hilltops as the peak of Braemar Hill.
The north and western sides of this hill are largely residential, consisting primarily of private upmarket real estate. Because of its convenient location and high real estate prices, Braemar Hill is considered one of the more affluent neighbourhoods in the territory.
Infrastructure and establishments
Education
The area is home to a large number of schools, including one-third of the secondary schools in Eastern District.[2]
In 2020, the Hong Kong Government proposed building a pedestrian link and escalator system between Braemar Hill and Fortress Hill, which has an MTR station. [5][6] It would be akin to the Central–Mid-Levels escalator, albeit with gaps and more lifts. Currently under construction, the Highwyas Department currently estimates completion of the system in 2027.[7]
