    Stable, safer trails now after reopen. Those who want challenge shld try the dairy farm trail. Not for beginners! :X ^^Can top up water or wash your MTB @ Wallace and Visitor Centre.

    The trail is very steep and not goid for your ankles, but the environment is very nice with tropical jungle. ANYWAY the highest spot of Singapore is very easy to conquer!

    The best hiking spot in Singapore with few difficulties level. The whole place is well kept, and safe. You can enjoy a quick picnic at the summit, but make sure you bring back the trash with you.

    For a challenging climb start from the dairy farm side and keep taking turning right at every T junction you come across. Wear good hiking boots as it gets quite slippery especially after it rains.

    Allow yourself to pause and admire the greenery and wildlife, instead of hurrying to finish the trails

    This rainforest is where you could go biking along different trails and see different species of plants and animals. Go to the visitor centre to see interesting exhibition of specimens. Open 6am-7pm.

    Notice a spring strapped around a tree? It's a Dendrometer, which measures the growth of the tree

    Home to more than 840 flowering plants and over 500 species of animals (including butterflies) in lowland tropical jungles. An easy hike once you get up the 1st steep hill. Definitely worth a visit. Read more

    More people than animals here. 😆 If you want to see some wildlife, you’re better of at neighbouring Dairy Farm Nature Park.

    Good to bring your trekking pole as going downward can be a bit more stressed on the knees.

    If you want to see monkeys, come when the weather is sunny, dry or otherwise fine. The monkeys tend to stay in the security of the trees during periods of bad weather.
