Kaze Sector

General

A smaller and less frequented sector in the hillside off to the right of the Crown.

Access

The blocs are best approached from Choi Fai Estate at the bottom of Jat’s Incline, which has parking at the estate as well as minibus service (No. 16 from Ping Shek Estate in Choi Hung). From the bus stop, walk up Jat’s Incline until reaching the staircases just before those leading to the Sam Fung Temple (三峰廟), about 5 minutes from base of Jat’s Incline.

The sectors at Sunset Forest are best accessed via a small concrete footpath a short distance down the road from the main staircase leading to the Sam Feng Temple. This concrete path leads you quickly to a small concrete platform, from which a small dirt trail accesses the forested hillside beyond in its back left corner. Follow this trail directly up and into the forest to quickly reach the blocs themselves..

Blocs

The blocs in the Kaze Sector are located scattered on the hillsides up and right of the Crown Blocs. From the Crown, traverse the hillside right about 30 m before turning left and heading up the hill, about 30 m to the Kaze Bloc and another 10 m or so to the Three Artefacts cluster.

Kaze

Located off to the right and just upslope of the Crown Bloc cluster is another small bloc.

Three Artifact Blocs

A collection of viscously rough granite blocs somehow present in a forest of otherwise volcanic tuff blocs (the explanation is actually quite simple: the bedrock beneath Sunset is all granite so these blocks have been exhumed in-situ by weathering and erosion of the soil around them, whereas all the volcanic blocs surrounding them have fallen down the hill from the volcanic tuff cliffs higher up on Kowloon Peak).
