Around December each year, the sweet gum woods in Tai Lam Country Park gradually transforms into the colors of autumn and winter!
The Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department (AFCD) has launched the “Red Leaves Express” thematic webpage on the Nature in Touch website. In addition to the “Red Leaf Index” which is updated every Friday, the page also provides information on road closures and special traffic arrangements to help everyone plan their trips!
To help everyone learn more about red leaves and promote hiking etiquette, the AFCD also organises guided tours, photo exhibitions and talks. These activities introduce the sweet gum trees and other ecological knowledge about plants, while educating visitors on proper etiquette when viewing autumn foliage. Hikers are reminded to be considerate, keep their voices down, and take their own litter away!
