Though it is relatively a "touristic" spot since it is promoted by Hong Kong Tourism Board, not too…read moremany people really did try to hike here before guess because of its steepness vs Dragon Back (a real touristic spot. Now it is as crowded as mongkok after being promoted. So pretty sad to me) So, I think Ng Tung Chai still kept its original nature, and really recommend you to go if you love HK natural side! Another reason I recommend you a go is that it is really hard to believe how gorgeous the waterfall is until you reach there! I browsed web photos and thought it is small, but when I reach there, I was totally amazed! Tips: Go earlier around 8/9am so that you will not meet crowd just in case :) Tips 2: Definitely it cannot be compared with waterfall in other countries LOL but if to compare within HK, it is the tallest, longest and would say best!

This place becomes very popular around December / January every year. Locals and tourists alike…read morecome for the maple trees... (Caution: there are more people than trees here...) Probably the only place in the world where you need to "queue" to take pictures of maple trees... (In a way, this is so Hong Kong... =.=) It's a fairly easy hike but I don't recommend cycling here unless you are a pro. The place is gorgeous but just brace yourself for crowds... I actually thought I went to Korea or something - this place doesn't feel Hong Kong at all! Transportation is pretty straightforward and there are direct buses connecting to the MTR station!

喜愛行山人仕都會忽視在沿途的標距柱，原來它是為行山者提供指引，可能救回迷路者，可當危急時須要醫療輔助隊請救。標距柱特為麥理浩徑之遠足人仕而設，讓他們沿途均可得悉所處位置，遇有緊急事故，遠足人仕可利用就…read more標距說明其位置，以協助救援行動。 標距柱之間相距約500米。自麥理浩徑的西貢起點至屯門終點，由M001順次序增至M200 從大埔道郊野公園起行由路口開始去河背水塘約為2.5公里，雖時一小時，這裡的風景很美，寧靜幽雅，水塘雖小，但水壩宏大，四週蟬鳴很熱鬧。 自己駛車能到達這水塘可走馬路，但須要有批文才能駛進。從河背水塘再出田夫仔就可行大覽涌水塘，出掃干忽，定可消磨一天時間，起碼行走五六小時，約有25公里之路。 在夏天行此路缐，包你能減去三四磅體重，對減肥的目標即時見效。

I am pretty sure that most Hongkongers spend their weekends in a shopping mall with…read moreair-conditioning. Yup. I am one of them. With the excruciating heat during summer in Hong Kong, it would be crazy to ask your friends 'hey! Let's go hiking this weekend!" Though I have to agree, do you know that Hong Kong in fact has one of the best hiking trails in the world and we are just not really appreciating it correctly. Lots of my foreign friends always wondered why is that locals here simply do not go hiking... Well... that's quite embarrassing as we might be taking the nature for granted. Regardless, I finally took up the courage and embraced with our great natural side of Hong Kong. As a matter of fact, Tai Lam Country Park is the second largest country park in the territory. I did not finish the entire trail (sorry I am just a spoiled city boy) but frankly speaking the scenery was just AMAZING. It is fairly difficult to find an idle and tranquil place in Hong Kong, so hiking to places like this is definitely perfect choice for all. Personally, I loved the Red leaves in Dai Tong during winter when it is less hot and the scene would make you feel like you are in one of those romantic Japanese TV shows where the guy and the girl meet.

A great place to take kids on the weekend to learn about plants and animals, and for anyone else who enjoys the outdoors for miles of hiking trails winding through fruit orchards, orchids among other plants native to HK and Guangdong. Don't miss out on the pigs and garden centre (I should have picked up my herbs BEFORE they all sold out at 4pm). Needless to say, the $20 admission and journey to the New Territories is well worth it!
