Wong Nai Chung Reservoir Park

Take a short, uphill trek from Happy Valley to Wong Nai Chung Road, get your steps in for the day, then find yourself in a reservoir-turned-park. This place feels like the middle of nowhere, but in fact is only just out of the urban sprawl. Up here, it's ideal for a morning or afternoon stroll to catch some fresh air, a cool breeze, and, of course, sunshine if you're lucky. Take a moment to listen to the birds chirping and forget about life's troubles for the time being. For those who fancy a hike, it also doubles as the starting point for some great hiking trails towards Stanley with a birdseye view of Repulse Bay en route.
