The name Kunpeng Trail comes from the legendary mythical beasts. Kun is a mythical fish, which is thousands of miles long; Peng is the phoenix, also known as the firebird and the immortal bird. The starting point and end point of Kunpeng Trail are both related to the phoenix. The starting point is Fenghuang Mountain, and the endpoint is Qiniang Mountain, also known as Dapeng Mountain. Kun was born in the sea and Peng has a mountain on its back, implying the imagery of mountains and seas. This coincides with the connotation of the main line of the Shenzhen hiking trail that connects mountains to the sea and is also the origin of the name. Shenzhen's hiking trail system consists of 'Three Trails and Three Routes'. The primary trail is the Kunpeng Trail, complemented by two Branch Trails, the Fenghuang Trail and the Cuiwei Trail. The Three Routes include the classic Yangtai Mountain Loop, Maluan Mountain Loop, and Sanshui Trail, with a total distance of approximately 420 kilometers.
