3. Sustainable Leisure and Recreation
With the abundance of natural, cultural and historic resources, Lantau possesses full potential to
be a desirable getaway destination. Green leisure facilities with low impact to the surrounding
areas could be provided to promote eco-tourism in Lantau. A comprehensive cycle track
and mountain bike trail network could link the attractions of Lantau and enhance the local
connectivity. High quality/themed camping grounds, water sports centre and adventure park
could increase the recreational and leisure potential of this getaway destination.
Looking Ahead
To take forward the above proposals, various studies and works projects are being / would be
carried out in different timeframes. While the ELM will be a long-term proposal beyond 2030
and its way forward will be considered in the territorial context under Hong Kong 2030+, it is
envisaged that most of the remaining proposals would be implemented in the short to medium
term.
