Route Description

This trip starts from Pak Long (北朗) near Lung Kwu Tan (龍鼓灘). The goal is to find the Bread Rock (方包石). We will pass by a slight-seeing feature called Emperor Rock (皇帝巖). It was said one of the Chinese king fled and stop by the huge rock for temporary shelter hundreds years ago. There is a well paved path taking you there from Pak Long bus station.
Shortly after the Emperor Rock, the footpath ends. You have to start real hiking by climbing over the yellow fence.
