What to do and see in Nature Reserve, Singapore: The Best Things to do

July 14, 2021 Weston Hennigan

The Singapore cityscape looks like it was ripped from the pages of a science fiction comic book. If you’re hungry for a true Singapore experience, sample the myriad street foods or take a cultural cooking class. The Botanic Gardens and the Gardens By the Bay offer a slice of horticultural heaven, and the observation deck of the Sands SkyPark makes you feel like you’re high above the clouds. The banks and walkways along the Singapore River bustle with local activity.

Due to COVID-19, we are unable to travel hence here we are exploring our own country. We took a walk from Dairy farm nature park to reach there and eventually end the walk at Rail mall. (Cut through the Fuyong estate) Best timing to go will be in the morning. Not v crowded and not so hot. ????

Hindhede Quarry

Reviewed By LimCT168 - Singapore, Singapore

This park is located within Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and it has several trails. Take a leisurely stroll here and enjoy the fauna and flora of Bukit Timah. It is suitable for elderly and children. If you stand facing the visitor centre, the Hindhede Nature Park is on your left. It is wheelchair accessible but be mindful about the long slope from Visitor Centre. It takes about 10 minute for me to walk from carpark to “lookout” point overlooking the large Hindhede Quarry. Fish and tortoises greet you at the lookout point. Occasionally, you can see monkeys, monitor lizards, squirrels and birds too. There is a small park for children and playground where you can try the “flying fox”. There are wooden tables and chairs where you can have a picnic if you like. Opening hours is from 7am to 7pm. If you want to take MRT/train, alight at DTL (blue line) Beauty World Station Exit A. There are many public buses that stop along Upper Bukit Timah Road and Jalan Anak Bukit. Carpark is limited and quite occupied during weekend. Do note that no pets are allowed and feeding of monkey is prohibited.

Bukit Timah Nature Reserve

This protected rainforest, just 12km away from the city's high-rises, offers hiking and bike trails for observing some of the rarest insect, bird and mammal species in the world.

Good exercise to climb up to the summit of Bukit Timah which may be literally translated from Malay to "Tin Hill" in English. From experience, unless one is really fit, one should walk with a slow and leisure pace. A hurried pace can leave one exhausted and out of breath even just a third of the way to the summit. The last 100 meter or so requires one to climb up a flight of very steep stairs. Don't underestimate the distance. I had seen quite a few people (including myself :-)) pausing for a rest half way on the stairs. The summit of the hill which is around 165 meter tall is the highest point of Singapore. On the day I was there, there were about a dozen crab-eating macaques with their young ones. They appear to be used to human beings. But it is still a good idea to keep a distance from them. No feeding of animals is allowed in the reserve. It took about two hours to climb up and down the hill.
