This stretch of walk is sandy and sloppy and not readily visible , so one should be careful in hiking here. From along this catchment for 1.5Km will lead one to the point underneath the Old man Rock.

Read more柏架山可算是耀东村的后山,起码有三条路通上去。而且在耀东村里面走走坐坐,吃个饭,感觉也很好呢。这次先到耀贵楼旁边的励志会梁李秀娱纪念小学,绕到后面的停车场,接斜坡楼梯上山。上山途中遇见男女三人,分别抱着三个小孩,也往山上行去。难道家在山上?后上来引水道,过25(1)号涧,听见涧边窝棚有人声传来,正是那几人。向前过一个路口,地下石上刻着耀东两字。再前就见左边有铁板架过引水道,边上还有一块山泥警告牌。几步就上来环柏架山的山腰小径,也可以叫上路。左转几步很快就可以沿脊线向上爬。也不费力就来到大石区,有一片黄土裸露。山下高楼密集,对岸是鲤鱼门,一直远望到钓鱼翁。石区中段有一人形大肚石,再上就是将军石,头发侧飘,有些象桔子洲头的毛泽东头像。 再上是45度斜径,行在林中,直到车路前一百米有个小山包,有几块石突出,可以赏景。然后来到车路,左转上两个天文台。先到东方507山顶,标高柱在发射架下,亦有路下山,看来颇密。回走至另一个大白球,从后方绕过,翻过栏杆前行十分钟,来到532标高柱。本可一眺山南,谁知雾气上涌,白茫一片。只得继续西行,至西、南路口,看来还算可行。北向亦有布条指引,经密林直下车路。但后段至一干涧,颇斜,又没有了布条,只好横向移往一段斜坡楼梯,才得下来。续至...
