HIGHLIGHTS OF THE TRAIL

(Remember that you negotiating along the wet and slippery trail and extra care is highly recommended)

I went here on a stormy day and the water is awesome and strong.

Look how powerful the waterfall is behind me...there ain't nothing better but great feeling at this moment! 

When you reach the last pool on top, you can also locate your exit point by simply following the Nam Chung Trail which is on the right-hand side of the upper pool.

To return to the city is to take mini bus 56K towards Fanling Station.
