2、植物園
植(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)物(wu)園面積(ji)達4公(gong)頃的,植(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)有逾一(yi)千(qian)株植(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)物(wu),包括果樹,玫瑰、馥郁等植(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)物(wu),其中一(yi)株原(yuan)植(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)于財利(li)船廠(chang)的50年假(jia)菩提樹,它的樹冠逾20米,高達8米。

4、緩跑徑
緩跑徑全長1,500米。此徑由(you)服務中心出發,繞(rao)著(zhu)人工(gong)湖一直延(yan)伸(shen),沿途設(she)有9個(ge)健(jian)身(shen)站、6個(ge)觀景亭及瀑(pu)布(bu)橋。
5、服務中心
迪(di)欣湖活(huo)動中(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)心中(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)有1個服務(wu)中(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)心,中(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)心并由多(duo)座以木料(liao)和(he)瀝(li)青瓦片覆蓋的斜屋頂低層的舊式英倫(lun)風格建(jian)筑(zhu)物組成。全所活(huo)動中(zhong)(zhong)(zhong)心的唯一的更衣室、小食店均(jun)設(she)于此,并提供(gong)小艇租賃(lin)服務(wu)。
當(dang)地的(de)小(xiao)食(shi)店(dian)是(shi)7-11便利店(dian),有(you)波仔飯出售(shou),即場有(you)微波爐。店(dian)外設(she)有(you)桌椅,有(you)蓋可以野餐。迪欣湖活(huo)動中(zhong)心有(you)園規,沒有(you)禁(jin)止(zhi)自(zi)備(bei)糧(liang)水,所以在園內野餐者(zhe)眾。
不足之處
1、遮蔭地方甚少
迪欣湖(hu)活動中(zhong)(zhong)心(xin)(xin)(xin)的(de)(de)遮(zhe)(zhe)蔭地方甚(shen)少,以致游客(ke)在下雨及烈日下狼狽不已(yi)(yi)。其主要(yao)原因是(shi)由(you)于(yu)中(zhong)(zhong)心(xin)(xin)(xin)里的(de)(de)樹木(mu)甚(shen)多是(shi)不能(neng)遮(zhe)(zhe)蔭的(de)(de)樹苗已(yi)(yi)及遮(zhe)(zhe)蔭有蓋的(de)(de)建筑物嚴(yan)重不足,例如遮(zhe)(zhe)蔭處只設于(yu)活動中(zhong)(zhong)心(xin)(xin)(xin)里的(de)(de)服務中(zhong)(zhong)心(xin)(xin)(xin)和植物園(yuan)的(de)(de)涼亭。更有工程師指出(chu),中(zhong)(zhong)心(xin)(xin)(xin)里的(de)(de)樹苗還需十年才能(neng)長(chang)成能(neng)遮(zhe)(zhe)蔭的(de)(de)大(da)樹。
2、洗手間不足
由于中心(xin)內(nei)只設有(you)兩所(suo)洗(xi)手間(jian)(jian)(分別設于服(fu)務中心(xin)和(he)緩步徑(jing)旁),所(suo)以曾有(you)游(you)客(ke)于開幕初期投訴洗(xi)手間(jian)(jian)不足,廁(ce)所(suo)太細,結果游(you)客(ke)需要排隊等候,而(er)且洗(xi)手間(jian)(jian)的衛生程度亦欠佳(jia),更不時有(you)異味傳出,使游(you)客(ke)反(fan)感。
3、水上活動安全規則含糊
在水(shui)上活動(dong)開幕(mu)初期(qi),曾(ceng)被市民投訴水(shui)上活動(dong)安全規則含糊,對于不穿救生衣(yi)的(de)玩(wan)客(ke)未有拒絕登船,妄顧玩(wan)客(ke)安全。
4、旅客減少
旅游業(ye)人(ren)士(shi)指水上(shang)活動收費昂貴,并且交由迪士(shi)尼樂園負責管理(li)后宣傳(chuan)不足,因此旅客減少(shao)。有人(ren)說這是(shi)被遺(yi)忘的迪欣湖。
開放時間
每天早上9時(shi)(shi)至(zhi)晚上7時(shi)(shi),免(mian)費開放。
