WHAT'S UP
The general public in Hong Kong loves visiting country trails,
however, the frequent visits may accelerate soil erosion of nature trails.
The Green Earth launched the
“ECF Make Our Nature Trails Sustainable – Leave No Trace Education Programme”
in Aug 2018. Though public engagement activities,
we promote the sustainable use and management of hiking trails.

【#愛護天然山徑💪🏼 #修復捷徑 ⚒️ #清水道】
秋風起🍂~又係行山好季節😌 即係我哋嘅天然山徑，又開始要面對大家龐大嘅腳步👣同壓力啦🙈
綠惜地球「自己山徑自己修」義工組都開始呢個山季嘅Actions💪🏼 密密出動修護山徑⛰️
我哋義工組剛就應漁護署邀請，前往大潭郊野公園，協助修復兩條不明捷徑，同時開通返一條長達30米嘅導水道！
兩條不明捷徑相信係由公眾人士自行開闢，不過斜度甚大，唔熟路嘅朋友誤入，會有安全風險；此外，捷徑嘅水土流失情況亦嚴重，再唔處理，會影響下坡嘅行山徑。修復後，希望大家都 #行返正路 ，唔好貪一時之快。
嚟緊嘅山季，相信你會不時喺山上遇到綠惜地球嘅義工組⛏，不妨同我哋say個hi 啦🙌🏼
