2014-11-14 龍門郊遊徑 (城門水塘至川龍)

The Fridayhikers are a group of friends who go hiking for leisure. Depending on the weather and road conditions, the hiking route may be subject to change without prior notice. Participants joining the hikes do so at their own will and at their own risk. They may consider buying their own insurance for better protection. The hike leaders, the organizers and any other participants in the hikes are exonerated from any liabilities and claims as a result of any accidents or losses arising.


Dear all,

This Friday is going to be cloudy with a few rain patches.   We'll walk from Shing Mun Reservoir to Chuen Lung.  It is a 8.5-km walk in about 3.5 hours.  Our hike in the first 45 minutes is a continuous uphill climb on stairs, and then the trail will go on almost level ground. 

Meeting Time: 8:55 am

Meeting Point: Exit B, Tsuen Wan MTR Station

We'll leave the MTR station at 9:00 am sharp to catch the minibus #82 at 兆和街 departing at 9:10 am. It runs every 15 min. In case you miss it, please take the next one or call a taxi to Pineapple Dam 菠蘿壩, the starting point of our hike. Toilet facilities are available there.

The quickest way to get to the starting point of Lung Mun Country Trail is to take the stairs by the side of the tourist centre at Pineapple Dam, and then pass through the butterfly garden.

Please bring plenty of water, mosquito repellent and sun/rain gear.

Regards,
Louisa

P. S.  Should it rain on Friday morning, we may walk round the reservoir instead.
