About this Campsite

The Shek Pik Campsite is a convenient spot with amenities like transportation and public toilets nearby, but it also has its drawbacks. One thing to consider is that the campsite is quite small, with limited space for each camper, and some areas are uneven or covered in gravel. Overall, if you're looking for a peaceful night's sleep without a lot of fuss, this spot might be worth checking out - just keep in mind that it can get noisy during the day due to nearby traffic.

Tai Long Wan Tsuen - a pleasant community built in 1959. When the government was finalizing its plans for Shek Pik Reservoir, it built Tai Long Wan Tsuen to re-settle many people whose homes were to be flooded by the reservoir - the villagers from Shek Pik Wai, Fan Pui, Kong Pui, Sha Tsui, Chung Hau and Hang Tsai. (Some villagers were also re-settled at Mui Wo and Tsuen Wan.) Over ten families now live in Tai Long Wan Tsuen, mostly members of the Fung and Tsui families. The Fung Ancestral Hall is situated there. Shek Pik Reservoir - It is surrounded by Kau Nga Ling at the east, Keung Shan at the west and Muk Yue Shan and Sze Tsz Tau Shan at the north. It was completed in 1963 after 7-year construction. The main dam is 713m in length and 54m in height which cuts across the Shek Pik Valley and diverts stream water from nearby mountain ranges. Its capacity is 24.4 million cubic metres which claimed the largest reservoir in Hong Kong during 1960s.
