Quarry Bay Tree Walk is a comfortable and peaceful route, connecting Mount Parker Road and Kornhill Garden, it also overlaps with Stage 2 of Wilson Trail and part of the Eastern Nature Trail. Though located in downtown area, it offers escape from the city and delights both the body and mind. The Tree Walk is about 1.1km long, where 19 interpretation plates are installed to introduce trees such as Hong Kong Gordonia and Soft-fruited Ormosia. The location of Quarry Bay Tree Walk was important in wartime, as is shown by the remnants of war such as communal stoves and warehouses found along the walk. A stroll along the Tree Walk brings you knowledge about nature and wartime history.
