[2025 Hong Kong Attraction] Travel Guide for Tai Tam Country Park (Updated Mar)

#Autumn Good Places Today I came to Tai Tam Country Park in the southern part of Hong Kong Island, ready to embark on a journey of close contact with nature! As soon as I walked into Tai Tam Reservoir Road, I was fascinated by its scenery. The combination of beautiful natural scenery and rich history here is truly amazing. As I walked slowly along the road, I saw many ancient water facilities before my eyes. Some of them were 105 years old. It was really awe-inspiring! Under a clear sky, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the rippling water on the pond and the interweaving of mountains and waters. It is simply a vivid picture. I chose the route starting from the south gate of Tai Tam Country Park, walked to No. 4 Tai Tam Tuk BBQ Site, then walked south to Tai Tam Tuk Reservoir Dam, and then turned back to the starting point. The entire trip only took about 2 hours, and the route was mainly flat, making it perfect for novice hikers. Along the way, I felt the gift of nature. The fresh air fills my lungs and the tree-lined scenery is refreshing. The water in the pond exudes a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere, which calms my mood. This hiking activity is definitely an unforgettable experience! Not only did I experience the magical beauty of nature, but I also deeply felt the unique charm of the southern part of Hong Kong Island. Plus the fun time I had with my friends, it was truly unforgettable. 🌿🥾💖 If you are also a hiking enthusiast, why not take a trip to Tai Tam Country Park? You will definitely get a unique experience. Remember to bring your camera to capture this beautiful nature, you will be fascinated by its charm! 📸🌅🌸✨ #Good places to go in autumn #Weekend trip #Hong Kong check-in #Good places to go in the countryside #Outing #Recommended hiking routes

At 1,315 hectares (3,250 acres), the park consists of one fifth of Hong Kong Island's land mass.[1] During World War II, the Japanese encountered strong resistance from British defence forces here. So that the park preserves bloody memories from that period.

Parent-child hiking route recommendation: Tai Tam Water Works Heritage Trail #Super beautiful view # Can push stroller # Two and a half hour route The sky is sunny today. Take the opportunity to go hiking, breathe fresh air and stretch your muscles! 📍Today’s starting point is Tai Tam Country Park! First, take bus No. 14 from Exit A of Sai Wan Ho MTR Station and get off at Tai Tam Country Park Station. 🚽 Then cross the road and go to the restroom before starting ~ There are no restrooms along the way, you have to go to the finish line near Yangmingshan Mansion before there is another restroom! We started from the eighth stop of the Tai Tam Water Works Heritage Trail, along the way there are Heritage Trail information station signs introducing what to see, two children did not have the heart to see 😅 However, have paid attention to the surrounding notice board, know the reservoir What not to do ❌❌❌ There are concrete roads all the way and the first hour is very comfortable and nice flat road! There are shade trees along the way, and there are some resting spots, but the barbecue area is closed and you can't sit in and rest ~ After the fifth stop, we started to go uphill and started sweating💦 After walking for a while, you will see a fork in the road. Our end point is Yang Ming Shan Mansion, on the Wong Nai Chung Pass Road. Tai Tam Sub-Reservoir and the stone bridge a little further ahead are good photo spots📸 Then you will see the exit and entrance of Tai Tam Family Fun Trail. If you have enough energy, you can also walk in 😉 You can take a bus/taxi to Yangmingshan Mansion 🚖 to Causeway Bay MTR Station ~ $5x. 💡 There are no supplies along the way, so be sure to bring plenty of water and snacks.

It's hiking season again, and before the kids' summer vacation ends, we took them for an 8-kilometer hike at Tai Tam Country Park. Transportation: Start from Sai Ying Pun MTR Station, take the Island Line to the terminal station Chai Wan, find the bus terminal at Exit C, and transfer to bus 16X or 16M to Tai Tam Country Park. Tai Tam Country Park is quite large, covering about one-fifth of Hong Kong Island. There are many hiking trails, and we chose the Tai Tam Reservoir Road - Mount Parker Trail, which is about 8 kilometers long. We walked, played, and had a picnic along the way, taking about two and a half hours. There are 21 declared monuments along the Tai Tam Waterworks Heritage Trail, including dams and ancient stone bridges. The path is mostly flat, with some gentle slopes leading to Tai Fung Au, making it not too strenuous. The scenery along the way is pleasant, with green lake water and shimmering lake surfaces. The cool breeze on the dam is very relaxing. There are no shops or vending machines along the way, so be sure to bring enough water and food before setting off. The cement road from Mount Parker to the hiking trail is easy to walk, mostly downhill. The path is shaded by dense trees and has several viewing platforms. Near the end, you can overlook the urban scenery of Quarry Bay and Taikoo.

Mount butler to tai tam reservoir🤩

Take bus No. 6 from Central to Stanley Road and get off at Wilson Path stop. As soon as you get off the car and walk up the mountain, you will reach Magang Mountain. This section of the trail is more difficult to travel because there are no tall trees to provide shade, and you have to climb very high stairs up the mountain under scorching sunlight. You will pass through two hills, called Magang Mountain, and pass Zigang Bridge on the way, which represents the transition between Magang Mountain and Violet Mountain. It took about 1.5 hours to walk through Maple Stage. You can choose to continue to challenge Violet Hill at the Zigang Bridge, or you can choose two other routes, heading towards Tai Tam Reservoir or Repulse Bay Road. Finally, I chose to head towards Tai Tam Reservoir, passing through the Tai Tam Reservoir Heritage Trail, which took about 1.5 hours. Walk to Tai Tam Country Park to complete the trip. #HongKongGoodPlaces #Tai Tam Reservoir #Tai Tam Water Tyrant #Beautiful

Start from the Mount Parker Nature Trail and go up to Mount Pina at Tai Fung Au. You have to walk up a long flight of stairs, and finally reach the top of the mountain, where the reservoir scenery comes into view. Along Mount Pina towards Jardine, from near to far, you will see Tai Tam Reservoir, Tai Tam Harbour, Cape Tsui and Po Toi Island. The route has ups and downs throughout and is a recommended route for practicing Qigong; many cross-country runners were met along the way. #meethongkong # Tai Tam # Hong Kong Trails # Hong Kong Hiking Trails

If you ask you who is the largest reservoir in Hong Kong, you may answer Wan Yi Reservoir / Boat Bay Freshwater Lake, but if you ask you who is the most beautiful reservoir in Hong Kong, I do not know what your answer is 😌? Today I want to introduce you to a hiking route that I think is the most beautiful reservoir in Hong Kong Suggested tour route👇 Quarry Bay --> Berkshire Hills Road --> Tai Fung Au --> Tai Tam Reservoir What's special about this route 😉? 1. Forest Biological Diversity Nature Education Center🏡 (Around 15 minutes from Quarry Bay you will see this very foreign architectural style of red brick house😍, it turns out to be a nature education center, there will also be an exhibition hall and a tour for you to learn about Hong Kong's biodiversity, but currently suspended during the epidemic 😷, but checking in at the door is still a good choice😜) 2. Beautiful European-style stone bridge🥰 (The most attractive thing about Tai Tam Reservoir is its unique stone bridge😁, it is very rare in other reservoirs😯. 3. Tam Kong Waterfall💦 (The section between Tai Tam Upper Reservoir and Tai Tam Middle Reservoir will pass through a waterfall ga😆, if you don't mind spending 30-45 minutes, you can go and see this stable waterfall wonderland, it's really a holiday feel😌) 4. Capture Fat Brother in the Wild 🤵‍♂️ (I heard that Tai Tam Reservoir is one of the easiest routes to capture Fat Chow, but I haven't been able to see Fat Chow twice on this route 😄) Tips: I think this route belongs to the 2-3 star route, mainly because the section from Quarry Bay all the way up to Tai Fung Au is on the concrete road uphill, and there are fewer flat sections in the middle to recover 🥵 #Tai Tam #Tai Tam Reservoir #Stone Bridge #Quarry Bay #Park Hill Road #Tai Fung Au #Forest Biodiversity Nature Education Center #Red Brick House #Tam Kong Waterfall #Waterfall #Wonderland #Tai Tam Country Park #Wild Capture Fat Chow #Chow Run Fat #Fa Ho #hiking #Hong Kong The Most Beautiful #Relaxed Reservoir Series #Local Tour

Autumn has arrived and it's the best hiking season in Hong Kong. We hiked the Tai Tam Waterworks Heritage Trail last Sunday. We walked along this five-kilometre trail for a look at 21 declared monuments. From bridges to aqueducts, arches to dams, you could get a good look at the engineering and architectural styles dating back over a century. This trail is mostly flat and is covered by trees. You can bring a stroller if you have an infant or small toddler with you. We began our journey from Hong Kong Parkview at 10am. Walked via Tai Tam Reservoir Road to Tai Tam Upper Reservoir and then to Tai Tam Waterworks Heritage Trail. We arrived at Tai Tam Road (End Point) at around 12:30pm. You can take the bus (no 14) back to Grand Promenade from there. The whole journey lasted around 2.5 hours for us and our kids enjoyed the hike very much. #hiking

Tai Tam Reservoir is one of the easiest trails in HK hiking scenes. It is a circular family walk that can be done in an hour. It starts off in Parkview and you do a round and ends back at Parkview. Along the way to the reservoir, you’ll see a bridge that leads into a narrower road that leads to Violet Hill and Twin Peaks which leads to Stanley, but that’s a more challenging hike. There are wild boars along the way but don’t approach them closely or feed them!
