Its main stem originates from the south of Tai Mo Shan’s summit, at an altitude of 930m – the highest headwater for a river in Hong Kong. The highest section of the main stem, Tai Shing Stream (大城石澗), initially flows northeast from the headwater. The stream then turns southeast and flows down into Upper Shing Mun Reservoir (上城門水塘), situated in a valley towards the southwest. From there, the river flows southeast through Shing Mun Gorge (城門峽), where Upper Shing Mun Reservoir’s Gorge Dam is located, and enters Lower Shing Mun Reservoir (下城門 水塘), formerly a river valley.
