Tai Tam Nature Walk

Tai Tam Nature Walk
大潭自然段

. A smooth and gentle walk along the Tai Tam reservoir, a surprisingly quiet pocket of Hong Kong Island with amazing coastal views, fertile wetlands and century-old waterworks.

大潭自然段全長約12公里，途經大潭港，以及有「亞洲第一壩」之稱的大潭篤水塘主壩，並接上港島徑第七段。整段路徑大致平緩，喜愛山光水色卻對登上陡斜山坡卻步者不坊到此一遊。

Featured attractions 沿途特色景點介紹

Stanley Main Beach
- A lovely seaside community with lots of al fresco dining options. Stanley Beach comes to live every year in June when thousands of peddlers flock here to take part in the Dragon Boat Festival.
Tai Tam Tuk Reservoir
- Built more than a century ago when fresh water shortage was urgent issue in the fast growing colony. Dotted around reservoir are several stone dams and bridges.
Pumping Station Staff Quarters Compound
- This little compound is a real hidden gem. Built for the staff of the waterworks overlooking, this cluster of two low-rise whitewashed buildings with tiled roofs and connecting verandahs overlooking the Tai Tam Bay are unique in Hong Kong.
Tai Tam Tuk Reservoir Dam
- A spectacular sight in the raining season. When the reservoir is full, water flows over the 12 spillways like a giant man-made waterfall.
To Tei Wan
- Also known as catamaran beach, the calm and shallow waters make this a perfect place for all kinds of watersports: leisure boating, stand-up peddling and wakeboarding. The wetlands also boost an amazing biodiversity.

赤柱正灘
- 赤柱正灘為「香江八景」之一，其朝陽於海面上的倒映乃讓其擁有「赤柱朝暉」之稱。泳灘每逢端午節都有龍舟的賽事，而附近亦設有廣場市集和餐廳，非常熱鬧。
大潭篤水塘
- 大潭篤水塘建於1917年，為20世紀初港島供水開始增加的重要來源。水塘範圍內建有多個具歷史價值以及被列為法定古蹟的水務設施。
大潭篤原水抽水站員工宿舍群
- 由政府在進行的大潭計劃和大潭篤計劃時所興建。三幢員工宿舍分别於1905年、1907年及1936年落成，供水務署員工使用，並於2009年列為法定古蹟。抽水站現已改為自動化運作及中央操控，員工無須留宿，故員工宿舍現已空置。
大潭篤水塘水壩
- 當水塘溢滿時就會進行洩洪，貯水由12道溢洪道瀉下，猶如一條人造瀑布。
土地灣
- 風平浪靜的土地灣是立式槳板運動、滑浪等水上活動的勝地。這裏的濕地亦蘊藏豐富的生物種類。
