Ng Tung Chai Waterfall, a series of impressive cascades in Hong Kong's New Territories, offers a rewarding hiking experience accessible via public transport to nearby villages, followed by a moderately challenging trek. While experienced hikers can undertake solo visits, it's generally recommended to go with a companion for safety due to varied terrain and potential slippery paths. The best time to visit is during cooler, drier months (autumn/winter) for comfortable hiking and safer conditions, though waterfalls are more voluminous after rainfall; avoid heavy rain periods when paths become hazardous. There is no entrance fee, making it a highly affordable outing, with typical visit durations ranging from 3 to 5 hours to explore the multiple falls, including the majestic Main Falls. Visitors should wear sturdy hiking shoes, carry ample water, and be prepared for steep, uneven sections of the trail.
