Shing
Mun Reservoir |
There
is a paved trail that goes around the Shing Mun Reservoir located in the northwest part of the New Territories. You can reach the beginning of the trail
with a short mini-bus ride from the Tsuen Wan MTR station. Above left: a small forrest along the trail. |
Outlying
Islands |
There are a number of islands in Hong Kong collectively refered to as the
"outlying islands". They have plenty of trails and provide a reprieve
from the noise of the city. | |
Dragon's Back |
Though Dragon's Back is located conveniently within 20 minutes of urban Hong Kong, the view is excellent. |
Plover
Cove Reservoir |
Built
a few decades ago before Hong Kong started buying water from China mainland, this
was one of the largest reservoir constructed to combat the droughts that caused
water rationing. Now it is just a nice place to get away from the crowds - well,
it could still get crowded there! Left: Plover
