Shing Mun Reservoir

A sizeable reservoir in a deep valley; near the city yet with trails leading to tranquil areas amidst woodland and hills. The Pineapple Dam Nature Trail heads along the west shore of the reservoir to a forested basin. Follow the service road towards Leadmine Pass, and you can visit Shing Mun Arboretum, with native plants including camellias.

From Tsuen Wan, take minibus 82 from Shiu Wo Street (near MTR station), or red taxi.
