Arguably Hong Kong’s most Instagrammable destination during the winter months, Sweet Gum Woods, in the vast Tai Lam Country Park, sees the leaves on its trees burst into fiery colour — all bright yellows and shades of red — once the temperature dips. In ancient times, the paths through these hills linked rural villages; today, they lead hikers to spectacular vistas over Tai Lam Chung Reservoir, also known as Thousand Island Lake, flanked by lush green rolling hills. Along the way you’ll find temples beside the forest trails, stunning craggy outcrops and streams flowing down into the catchment area. The treat at the end is a walk along Golden Beach — and a sumptuous seafood feast.
