Route Description
The North Big Phoenix Stream is a very long and prominent river in Northern Lautau Island. The river runs into Tung Chung area. The Tung Chung Road is more or less in parallel with the North Big Phoenix Stream. If you take a bus from Tung Chung along the Tung Chung Road, you can easily discover a huge bony cliff hanging on your the right hand side. This cliff marks the beginning of this right offshoot. It is a relatively short journey but it is pretty enjoyable.
