Itinerary description

今天是超強颱風山竹肆虐香港後的第一個星期日,原本行程取道龍門郊遊徑往川龍、白石橋經仙霞洞往荃灣,因塌樹影響,故改行城門水塘林道往大埔墟,但沿途有很多處塌樹,須跨越多重障礙及佈滿段枝及落葉,滿目瘡痍似的。

從梨木樹起步,和宜合道左轉朝城門道方向上走,下行人隧道過和宜合道後,左轉向可風中學旁邊的和宜合里續走,在橋底見有警察正沿和宜合里抄牌,在和宜合里有一露宿女士和一隻愛犬在路旁搭建了一〞豪宅〞路宿。

和宜合里是一條掘頭路,到了路的盡頭,左接石級上走橋頭村,經過一些寮屋,上完石級,進入橋頭村範圍,沿途鋅鐵寮屋看似完整,未被蹂躪,跟著綠色欄杆路之字形上行,開始有狗歡迎我們了,不過大部份都是隔著鐵絲網,沿斜坡上走可回頭遠望荃灣景色,期後接上引水道。

在引水道右轉前行,至分岔路口左轉,沿城門水塘林道,經賞蝶園及龍門郊遊徑指示牌,賞蝶園已圍上膠帶不准進入,沿畔塘徑續走,經過蝴蝶園,看似沒有受山竹破壞,但畔塘徑下降菠蘿壩自然教育徑的路口已被膠帶圍封,已不通行。

續沿畔塘徑前行,走過了兩旁參天的白千層,似受山竹蹂躪已沒有往昔的風采,再在右邊的梯級下降至塘畔景點,此處為婚紗照熱點,現時水位已浸過了大部分的樹幹,再看不到過往老樹盤根的奇特景象。

返回畔塘徑,抵分岔路向大埔方面前行,沿衛奕信七段抵鉛礦坳小休,有行友在樹旁打開膠盒取生果進食,即被身後猴子搶走。小休後沿大埔坳林徑前走,抵下降大埔山徑前見大埔坳紅徑亦圍封了膠帶,似受山竹影響不能通行。前行不久左轉沿石級下降經龍城堡,天亦開如下雨,沿山塘路走至大埔墟鐵路站畢。
