Ma On Shan Country Park, Country park in Sai Kung District, Hong Kong.
Ma On Shan Country Park spans 2,880 hectares across eastern New Territories, featuring mountain trails, dense forests, and elevated viewpoints overlooking the surrounding islands.
The establishment of this protected area in 1979 followed decades of iron ore mining operations that employed thousands of workers until the mine closure in 1976.
The park territory contains remnants of ancient Hakka settlements, dating back to migrations from Guangdong province, with preserved structures scattered throughout the landscape.
Multiple entrance points connect to public transportation networks, while designated camping areas and rest facilities are distributed along the extensive trail system.
The park's geological makeup includes rare metamorphic rock formations in Hong Kong, created through ancient volcanic activities millions of years ago.
