HK
UNESCO
Global
GeoPark
It
was
renamed
as
above
on
Sep
18-2011.
It
represents
HK’s
Geopark
is
one
among
169
geoparks
in
the
world.
This
park
covered
the
Eastern
side
and
North-Eastern
regions
of
New
Territories.
Within
the
eastern
portion
it
is
the
Sai
Kung
Volcanic
Rock
region.
It
shows
many
volcanic
ash
rock,
volcanic
Prism
Columns
and
sea
caves.
It
is
a
unique
and
beautiful
land
formation.
With
the
sea,
High
Island
Reservoir
,various
Dams
and
green
mountains
and
pure
fine
sand
beach
it
can
only
be
described
as
heavenly
sceneries.
It
will
be
best
to
visit
on
Saturdays
and
Sundays
as
there
will
be
Minibus
9a
running
from
Pak
Tam
Chung
to
the
Eastern
Dam
costing
11.30
HKD
only.
For
the
real
hikers
,they
can
walk
there
for
the
whole
stretch
of
10
Km
of
Maclehose
Trail
1
from
Pak
Tam
Chung
to
the
Eastern
Dam.
There
will
be
minibus
returning
from
East
Dam
to
Pak
Tam
Chung
up
to
1900
hours.
Not
to
worry
if
you
miss
the
minibus
,you
can
call
a
taxi
by
phone
back
to
Sai
Kung
for
HKD
150
.
The
best
time
to
visit
will
be
late
Autumn
as
it
will
not
be
too
hot
nor
too
glaring
for
the
eyes.
The
10
Km
walk
will
be
on
paved
roads
along
the
High
Island
Reservoir.
It
will
be
a
pleasant
experience.
For
the
more
adventurous
hiker,
they
can
walk
from
Eastern
Dam
for
about
1.5
Km
to
reach
the
Long
Ke
white
sand
beach.
It
is
the
best
beach
in
HK.
The
hiker
only
needs
to
walk
an
elevation
of
about
100M
up
a
slope
and
down
100m
to
the
beach;
quite
easy
,
even
stronger
kids
can
manage.
Must
bring
camera
to
capture
so
many
beautiful
awesome
sceneries
which
one
cannot
digest
at
once.
The
whole
region
is
something
beyond
the
imagination
of
HK
Residents
that
nature
is
such
and
so
exceptionally
beautiful.
