Watch out for

Public transport is limited compared with central Hong Kong; buses and taxis are the main options.
The area is dominated by reservoirs, country park land, and large residences, so everyday retail and dining are sparse.
Some parts are hilly and better suited to people comfortable with walking on quiet roads and trails.
