Shek Lung Tsai Rock Jungle (石壟仔石林)

Trip Description

The highlight of the trip is to visit a rock jungle (石林). It is basically a vast pile of huge rocks. It lies to the right of Luk Chau Shan (鹿巢山). There are many cracks and spaces among the rocks. Please be careful in moving on the big rocks. Some climbing skill would be helpful. There are very few (next to none) signage in the rocks pile, you may need to follow your common sense and instinct to figure out your direction. Think and observe before you move.

After a while, we left the lower part of the rock jungle and entered a short green passage. Very soon we found ourselves in the upper rock jungle.
