4 Ho Pui Reservoir Family Walk
Ho Pui is a pleasant little reservoir near Pat Heung that’s a bit of a hidden spot compared to the larger bodies of water in Hong Kong. With rolling mountains in the background and a tiny island in the middle of the water, this makes for a picturesque day out. The family walk takes you around the whole reservoir and is paved the whole way, so it couldn’t be easier to stroll along. There are also little trails branching off from the main walk to explore, one of which leads through a small section of bamboo forest—so if you find yourself missing the bamboo attraction of Arashiyama, you can somewhat feed your travel bug here instead!
From Yuen Long Station, come out of Exit B and hop onto minibus 71 from Tai Hang Street, then simply alight at Ho Pui Terminus. While the hike is pretty kid-friendly, there is an uphill section in the beginning, so should you wish to avoid this because of a stroller, then you can always cab straight to the reservoir. The Ho Pui Reservoir Family Walk is marked on the park signs in the red line, while there are also the trails marked in orange and green available to tack on for more of a challenge.
