Wu Kau Tang Country Trail

3.9
(7)
0 5 7
Feng Shui and numerology play an important role in Chinese culture. Legend has it that Wu Kau Tang, initially named ‘Wu Kwai Tin’, which literally means ‘Tortoise Field’, was renamed so because of the negative connotation attached to tortoises; villagers in the New Territories replaced ‘Kwai’ with ‘Kau’, taking the auspicious meaning of the dragon and phoenix. Today, around Wu Kau Tang there are stone tablets with markings that refer to ‘Wu Kau Tin’. The trail also features a hill fire lookout, which looks out on the entire Sha Tau Kok Hoi, including Yim Tso Ha Egretry, A Chau Egretry, mangrove beds along Luk Keng coast, fish ponds, and paddy fields. The vistas of mountain ranges on the northeast of Plover Cove Country Park also come into sight. The beauty of the landscape aside, the trail offers glimpses of villagers’ wisdom of making use of raw materials around them, as evidenced by Castanopsis on the stairs – back in the era when food was scarce, villagers filled their stomachs with congee cooked with milled fruits of Castanopsis, whose local plants are still easily spotted around the area.

紅葉郊遊徑🍁
每年十二月都會黎烏蛟騰行下
因為冬天佢呢到有幾棵樹既葉會變到好紅

泊好車行幾分鐘就會到
不過十二月週末要早啲黎先避到人潮
有時間仲可以行去三椏~

幫主子放電其中一個理想郊遊徑
山路崎嶇,多上上落落,主子可以好開心又跑又跳,完全放足電,行完之後由下午5點訓到第二日既中午,而沿路風景優美,好多個唔同影相位

紅葉竹林流水 景色清幽
烏蛟騰算輕鬆易行, 但第一次去的話, 指示唔算清晰, 都花一點時間定位, 先要搵到九担租路, 才可以找到正確路線, 才可以順利到達三椏村。紅葉季節, 還有一棵巨型紅葉樹供觀賞拍照, 沿途有小竹林, 小瀑布, 景色頗清幽。

有紅葉睇嘅郊遊路線
⛰️ 全程為平坦山徑 有樹蔭、少量樓梯。
⚠️ 未別收到電話網絡,最好download定offline行山地圖!
🍁 九担租十二月至一月為紅葉期 假日會比較多人㗎 💪🏼我地仲上埋吊燈籠欣賞印洲塘嘅風景 👟 不過上落吊燈籠需要爆林手腳並用,建議帶手套、著長衫長褲同防滑行山鞋!

輕鬆易行嘅路徑
烏蛟騰->三椏村->烏蛟騰
慢行+影相+食lunch
11km ~5hrs✅
天陰陰涼涼地 再加上呢段路唔多上落位 非常之好行👍🏻
去到三椏村仲有3間餐廳可以食個lunch同買水補給

烏蛟騰郊遊徑
烏蛟騰郊遊徑位於船灣。一般由烏蛟騰田心村出發去到新娘潭路。
很簡單的一條路線, 大約一個小時多一點就可以了, 但上斜比較多, 要注意一下。
