Daddy Day (3) - Cycling at Po Kong Park

After the Wong Tai Sin Temple we took a taxi to Daimiond Hill and the Po Kong Village Road Park which has a rather improbable cycling track.

The park is on a steep hill above the entrance to the Tates Cairn tunnel and is surrounded by housing estates, with Lion Rock in the background.

The parks department created a circular elevated 1km cycling track by putting a bridge across the slope (lcsd link).  The elevated track also creates a big covered area where people can picnic or do tai chi even if its raining.   Pretty cool huh.

Its quite a fun place to cycle, although there is a fairly steep section up the hill which is difficult for kids if they haven't learnt to use gears.

There are other facilities in the park like a skateboard area and these cool parabolic acoustic devices.  The girls enjoyed being able to whisper to each other

"My dads fatter than your dad"...
