Arghhh! Ads are everywhere now!!
ok thats all folks on the journey! glad you like the photos!
it's own macdonalds as well! whoa so thats where everyone's gone to!
offering not only large picnic areas, but...
the place is a packed family outing area
yup our intel and spies confirms that the right place alrite!
and here we are finally at West coast park!
across the west coast highway
and this big open field
as with every downfall comes with something else... this one across west coast crescent
we will leave Clementi woods for now...
sad to see Clementi woods, a shadow of it's former self
the park restaurant is still there and is a Japanese restaurant now
clementi woods is not exactly bike friendly given the large number of steps in the park, but too small to be considered a proper
with the exception of people...
clementi woods was once a mangrove area, so there are quite alot of such varieties of swamp plants here
here, we get the backdoor entry to the park note its proximity to the road!
yup it kinda have characters arranged in a way, that reading it out spells the place we intend to go as well!
is that a lone signboard I spy?
our next destination lies beyond this path
after a short walk and we are out of that urban jungle
and poof suddenly here we are at NUS!
alot of the road are banked really nicely, far more than those in Mt Faber
and lizard crossings
Here we have big PUB water bottles
a walk on the upper Kent Ridges of Kent Ridge, get it?
so as confirmed by the signboard
Here we are at the Heritage trail part of Kent Ridge trail (get it? neither do I!)
argh! walking through civilization (Science park I)
we exited Kent Ridge park through this pond route, before
something tells me the trees here love to fall...
wonder where that leads to?
Most people will just park their car at the free carparks here and head off the other direction towards Hortpark itself
despite it's proximity to Hort park, the place is only frequented only by regulars or people living around the area
though I won't label it as a Bt Timah alternative
the place also spots an offroad trail for mountain bikers and trekkers
hurray for our west coastline being turned into a container port!
facing the sea, the place is very airy and windy
the land of signboards, carparks and decommissioned tanks!
Kent Ridge (park) itself!
before arriving at...
our journey sees us through more mini forests
thats all for that boring walk, our next stop will be Kent Ridge Park!
the canopy walk is not as popular due to it being quite out of place in the connector route
offering rather interesting but otherwise tree-obscured views
it's like one of the mangrove trail walks, only like wayyy much higher
you will see this the start of the tree top canopy walk
once upon reaching the top of the park
few of the omg! part of the trip! (while I can hear you hillwork runners go yay!)
though we could really appreciate the shade of a primary forest!
