25 September 2009: Wong Shek - Pak Tam Au - Tsak Yue Wu

It is the 3rd time in a row that I post this route.  It was aborted in the last 2 times.  If for any reason, it is to be aborted again, we should consult a fung-shui master to find out if there is anything wrong with this route.

We last did this route on 17 October 2008.    We shall be able to enjoy the scenic sea view along the coast from Wong Shek 黃石 to To Kwa Peng 土瓜坪. 

The route goes as follows: Wong Shek Pier -- along the coast to To Kwa Peng -- MacLehose Trail Stage 2 -- Pak Tam Road at Pak Tam Au 北潭凹 -- Pak Tam Country Trail  -- Pak Tam Road at Tsak Yue Wu 鯽魚湖 near Lady MacLehose Holiday Village.  [Optional: If we finish early, we can consider doing the one hour Pak Tam Chung Family Walk from Tsak Yue Wu to the Pak Tam Chung Car Park.]

Meeting Time: 8:50 am (Bus No. 94 for Wong Shek Pier departs from Sai Kung Town at 9:00 am)

Meeting Point: Bus No. 94 terminus at Sai Kung Town

Hiking Time: about 3 hours                   

DON'T FORGET to bring plenty of water, sun and rain gear as well as mosquito repellents.

PLEASE CHECK THE WEATHER AT 7:30 AM ON FRIDAY.  THE HIKE WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE CANCELLED IF THE THUNDERSTORM, AMBER RAIN, RED RAIN OR BLACK RAIN SIGNAL IS ON.
