Selfie walking route called Southern Ridges
Hello Friends, Southern ridges is an excellent walking route for lot of reasons... one of them is, mainly for taking selfies with nice back drops.
Route:
1. Kent Ridge Park [via Pond or direct canopy walk) : There are some 3 parking lots around the park. I prefer to start the walk from road side of NACLI office as it allows us to do steep climb walk of around 650 meters. Once you reach the hill, you can either take right side direction to enter the park via road and to the main entrance of the park or take left [Car Park B] and carry out roundabout walk to see the Pond and enter the park after climbing some more stairs.
Canopy walk is simple and not long, you can read through some war time memory posters while walking. If lucky, you can spot some small green snake sometimes. This is also a good picnic spot.
2. Hort Park: You can enter the Hort Park (Back side) and see the glass houses. Enjoy the all around greenery, flowers, colorful plants and decors of Hort Park.
I personally enjoy the view from event hall top.
There is a restaurent here with lunch and dinner timing.
3. Connect out from Hort Park to forest walk through this majestic walking bridge called Alexandra Arch.
4. Forest Walk
This is one fabulous walk on metal bridge cutting right across the forest. There are so many variety of trees including Bamboo and you can enjoy lovely chirping sound of birds.
5. Telok Blangha Hill Park
This is off Henderson Road. Filled with bougainvillea flowers and it looks mesmerizing during early morning or at twilight. Nice place to sit a bit and enjoy tea.
There is also one mansion and premium food option near by and it is called "Alkaaf Mansion"
6. Henderson Waves
This wave shaped pedestrian bridge constructed at 36m height / above ground. This bridge gives two different feeling when you jog in the morning
or when you visit with girl friend by evening.
You can enjoy the view of powerful Reflections tower apartment from the Bridge.
7. Mount Faber
When you walk out to Mount Faber, you can enjoy the skyscraper view of Telok Blangha
There are couple of food option place above the Skyway park.
8. Harbour Front
You end the walk by climbing down to Harbour front from Mount Faber hill.
You can also try the opposite direction and end up at Kent Ridge also.
Don't miss the lovely places and the selfie spots throughout the walk.
The distance might come around 6.8 to 7.8 km and might take 85 min to 110 min to complete based on your phase and the diversion you take ! Do take some water to hydrate yourself.
