Besides the beautiful planting forest, there are barbecue, picnic and camping places, and visitors can use the camping places as bases for outdoor exploration activities.
Experienced hikers can try the ninth and tenth sections of Wilson Trail across Pat Sin Ling Country Park. Walk along the ridges such as Huangling, Libi Mountain and Baxianling, and on a clear day, stand on the heights of the ridge and look out, with a panoramic view of the vast countryside, rolling mountains and magnificent freshwater lake scenery in Plover Bay; On a clear day, you can overlook the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. The conglomerate at the top of Baxianling is a famous crown rock in geography.
In the south of Baxianling Country Park, there are Shaluo Cave, the hometown of dragonflies, and Tingjiao Wetland in site of special scientific interest, while in the north, there are the heron paradise, under the salt stove and its geomantic forest. The BBQ and picnic grounds next to Bride's Pool Road-Chung Pui BBQ and Chung Mei BBQ-also belong to Pat Sin Ling Country Park.
Climbing the peak from Daweidu, the mountain path along the way is steep and circuitous. On the ridge, the trail rises and falls, with cliffs in the south and rolling mountains in the north. Go straight ahead, and the Eight Immortals will appear one by one. It takes a lot of effort to climb every mountain.
Every mountain in Baxianling is a good place to enjoy the urban and rural scenery of Hong Kong at the same time, and Huangling is no exception. This weathered mountain gravel is everywhere, commanding, overlooking the natural beauty, and the distant scenery is the urban area of the New Territories.
south of Huangling is Shaluo Cave, and there are many abandoned rice fields and villages in the quiet deep valley. North of Huangling, behind the mountains, is Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province. When tourists go hiking in Baxianling, they usually take a break at Huangling and other hills. Sitting on the high hill, you can enjoy the sharp contrast between the downtown and the country scenery that is rare in the world.
