Hong Hong's Peak Tram has been in operation since 1888 and is the world's steepest funicular railway. The tram travels up from the Lower Peak Tram Terminus in Central on Hong Kong Island to Peak Tower via four intermediate stations: Kennedy Road, Macdonnell Road, May Road & Barker Road.

The Peak Tram runs daily, including weekends and public holidays, between 7am and midnight. A tram departs every 10-15 minutes. The terminus in Central is on Garden Road, a short walk through Chater Garden from J2 exit of the Central MTR station.
