Marang Trail to Mt Faber from Harbour Front Area

a short trek through few of the winding roads along Mt Faber

Alternative routes up Singapore's only mountain!

this route very much involves the old way up the hill, unless you take the Marang trail route

will bring us to one of the highlights of route!

next up will be the Telok Blangah hill forest walk

Telok Blangah hill have many family friendly facilities such as carparks and event areas

a view of the sinusoidal waveform which not only give the bridge it's curvy looks but pokes out at regular intervals above the w

nothing new, but hey it's still a good view, yea?

some bow looking thingies with words on them...

this is the highest we can get - 77m!

some of the few resting spots on the bridge, thou you can only enjoy the view at the handrails

And here we are are Mt faber in mappy goodness!

getting yourself orientated is not much a problem with many signs round the area

the henderson "sinusoidal" wave bridge is also Singapore's tallest "over head bridge" lol!

remnants of the the old Alkaff Mansion

the faber walk we will see us through the "Jewel Box" aka the cable care station

did I mention it's very difficult to get lost here?

a baby forest with some fitness corners

there are many cool height markers engraved on the bridge's floors, though 60m is nothing really great to brag about!

not to mention many playgrounds for children as well!

ah so the arch is that way!

there are plenty of information maps at the attractions for those who want to know bit more on top of those who are topograhical

it have some small shaded resty areas, but blocks only the sun partially on this sunny day

the bridge is open top, with no shelter at all

located at the peak of the faber hill...

man it does look high up from here!

the terrace garden is nice, but not a highlight of today's walk
