Sam A Chung Traditional Cache
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
This cache is located in the north east Hong Kong, within 30 minutes easy walk from the end of the main road.
This cache is located along the trail from the end of Wu Kau Tang Road to Sam A Tsuen. To get to the beginning of the trail, you can drive to the parking lot (N22 30.378 E114 14.580), or by taxi from Tai Po Market Station to the end of Wu Kau Tang Road (Which is the parking lot).
BE ADVICED: Mobile Phone networks does not cover the area you're about to walk into, strongly suggest you go with someone and/or advice someone at home of your destination prior departure.
Keep yourself on the trail to Sam A Tsuen (Sam A Village) and make sure you don't head off the wrong split trail. The cache is just off the trail and require NO climbing or going thru any bushes. My GPS shows a 12.1M accuracy at the time I hid the cache, it's just the location of the area, you need to look around and move a few bricks to find it.
While the cache location is unique, I highly recommend you continue the hike to Sam A Tsuen (Sam A Village), which takes you thru some very best scenery of Hong Kong. There are a very good campsite at Sam A Chung (N22 30.510 E114 16.302) 15-30 mins walk from the cache, but don't camp anywhere else. Sam A Chung connects to the sea which is subject to tides, we almost camped a spot that floods by 1-2 feet of sea water at night. When it's not flooded, walk around the river bed for crabs and puddles fishes.
The cache is a "lock n lock" type container. I chose a "Larger than normal" container, fill with goodies that I am sure most of you will like. If able, please bring something nice for the next geocachers.
