Wu Kau Tang to Sam A Tsuen






Wu
Kau Tang (烏蛟騰), in Chinese it means a formidable dragon in motion, is
actually Hakka clans of several villages. Up to 2013, there is still no
big change and development in Wu Kau Tang. Hikers can still enjoy peace
and nature in this remote area of Hong Kong. Since this route is not too
difficult and dishes are supplied at Sam A Tsuen (三椏村), there are quite
a lot of hikers during weekends.



 




This map is taken / borrowed from http://www.hkwalkers.net/eng/trail_list/walkers_companion/WuKauTang_to_SamA/Route_Map.htm.
Basically, we follow this route. It takes one to two hours to hike from
Wu Kau Tang to Sam A Tsuen, depending on your speed. This means the
whole return trip takes two hours to four hours.









We take minibus route no. 20C from Tai Po MTR Station to Wu Kau Tang. This is the road of minibus terminal.










The hiking route is along a river / creek. Water is this river / creek is very clear and clean.




This is not a difficult route, its difficulty should be two stars. It is suitable to most hikers.





Mangrove
Red forest?






Basically, there is no need to bring a lot of food / fruits, since booking a lunch meal at Sam A Tsuen can solve the problem.




This is Sam A Wan, a part of Yan Chau Tong Marine Park.

It is also the point of return in this hiking.




This marine park is pretty calm. It is a good spot for drawing and enjoying the serenity of Hong Kong.




This
is Hop Yick Bee Farm, it is now also a village restaurant, serving
Hakka dishes for more than fifty diners at the same time.




Hikers
do not mind dining in Hop Yick since its food, boiled oyster and
chicken, are delicious. Hygiene condition is quite good.




There are several papaya trees in front of Hop Yick. If papayas are mature, they will be served to diners.
