After passing the information board of the Tai Tam Waterworks Heritage Trail, you will reach a fork in the path; follow the signposts to turn left toward Quarry Gap and continue forward. Hong Kong Trail Section 6 Quarry Gap is a route running alongside Tai Tam Reservoir that offers beautiful scenery, complete with old English-style structures and historical waterworks monuments. The starting point of this section sits at an elevation of over 300 metres at Quarry Gap (Tai Fung Au), which is the mountain pass nestled between Mount Butler and Mount Parker, and also serves as the end point of Hong Kong Trail Section 5. The total length of this route is about 6.5 kilometres, taking around 1.5 hours to complete, and is moderate in difficulty—ideal for beginners and family outings.
