Kam Tin River is in the northwest New Territories; as the name suggests it flows through the Kam Tin area, to the east of Yuen Long. The river basin occupies around 44.3 square km. The horizontal length of the main stream of Kam Tin River is about 13 km. The main stream begins 400 metres to the north of the summit of Tai Mo Shan, at an altitude of 910 metres. This is the second highest origin of a Hong Kong river. The main stream plunges down the steep slope on the northwest Tai Mo Shan, crosses Route Twisk, Lui Kung Tin and Tai Ling, and enters Kam Tin Plain. It then passes Sheung Tsuen, passing to the south of Shek Kong Barracks and Ng Ka Tsuen, before converging with another large tributary to the west of Kam Tin Shi. It then passes Nam Sang Wai, to the west of Sha Po Tsuen, and converges with Shan Pui River just south of Lut Chau, finally entering Deep Bay.
