Dear Fridayhikers,

To welcome myself back to hiking, I've chosen a relatively easy route for this week, our familiar walk from Wong Nai chung Reservoir Park to Tai Tam Reservoir.  The part overlooking Repulse Bay is exposed so it may be hot, but I think there is shade here and there throughout the route.

Meeting time:  9:15  am

Meeting place:  Wong Nai Chung Reservoir 


Please check on the web to see which buses can take you to Wong Nai Chung Gap Road.  I think Bus No. 6 and 61 from Central and Admiralty will take you there.  Get off at the Gas Station after the tennis courts.  Then walk towards Parkview along Tai Tam Reservoir Road.


Please take plenty of water, sunshade, rain gear with you.  Should the thunderstorm signal or any of the heavy rainstorm signals be hoistered at 8 am, the hike is automatically cancelled.


See you there !
