Crossing the Bride’s Pool area, the hike continues to the dramatic Wang Chung stream on the eastern side of Pat Sin Leng Country Park, including the Dragon Ball Waterfall. 
 
After exiting the stream, the trail joins the Pat Sing Nature Trail to the coastal village of Tai Mai Tuk and finishes at Lung Mei Beach.  At Tai Mei Tuk, there are plenty of food options, or you can enjoy a late lunch on the beautiful beach.

The Argyle Ross Trail: Jack Argyle and Stewart Ross launched the Argyle Ross Trail in 2024.  They devised a trail that provides water-based adventure through the natural beauty of Hong Kong.  The overall trail is a difficult 12-section, 100 km hike-swim from the desolate far north-east islands of Double Haven Geopark to the far west enclave of Ha Pak Lai, overlooking Shenzhen.  This field trip encompasses the medium Stage 3 of the trail.
 
Safety: The hike is of medium difficulty and includes one short steep climb around the side of the waterfall.  A reasonable level of fitness and agility is required.
