Tate's Cairn (Chinese: 大老山 Cantonese: Tai Lo Shan) is a mountain peak in Hong Kong. The peak is 583 metres (1,913 ft) in height. It is one of the peaks of the Kowloon Ridge and falls within Ma On Shan Country Park.
The name is used by a tunnel that travels under the peak. Built in 1991 at a cost of HK$2 billion, Tate's Cairn Tunnel is a 3.9 kilometres (2.4 mi) long twin tube tunnel.
The end of stage four and the start of stage five of the MacLehose Trail are located on Tate's Cairn.
