Social Gathering - Hiking at Tung O Ancient Trail in Lantau (jointly organized with HKIEIA and HKIOA)

Our  journey  to  Tung  O Ancient Trail on 25.5.08 was joined by 37 members from  CIWEM  HK, HKIEIA, HKIOA and ECC (Effective Communication Club).  The route  from  Tung Chung to Tai O started at Tung Chung MTR Station, passing through  Yat  Tung  Estate,  Tung  Chung Bay, Hau Wong Temple, San Tau SSSI (site  of  special  scientific interest), Hau Hok Wan, Sha Lo Wan, San Shek Wan,  and  arrived  in  Sham  Wat,  which  took  us about 3 hours.  After a wonderful lunch, we set off along the coastline of the northwest Lantau and arrive  in  Tai  O  to  finish  this tour.  This coastal walk is scenically magnificent,    passing    some    quaint    villages,    built   heritage, ecological-valued habitats, and ancient trees.  All these exhibit prominent contrast  against  the rapid modernisation and civilisation of north Lantau and  Tung  Chung new town, e.g. the airport, cable car, planned development of  cross-border  road  networks,  logistics park, container terminal, etc.

All participants enjoyed very much the opportunity to take a break from our daily  work,  but  also to socialise among old and new friends.  We express our sincere gratitude to the hiking leader and volunteers from the ECC.
