For our weekly dose of greenery, we explored Chestnut Nature Park which is really a gem. Made up of 2 parts - Chestnut Nature Park (South) & Chestnut Nature Park (North), the park is actually Singapore’s largest nature park!
The North hiking trail is 3.5km long while the South trail is 2.1km long. You can easily complete the entire 5.6km in one day but we decided to go on the South trail first. That's because the terrain is more 'fun' to hike along - think stepping over tree logs, giant tree roots, boulders and climbing up stone steps. Nothing too overly challenging even for younger kids but good enough to excite them compared to a boring flat terrain. 😜
We love the rustic feels while trekking through the forested area - and we even saw more animals than we had seen on out previous hikes! Squirrels, swallows and even a wild boar family (4th photo)! The final part of the trail.brought us out into an open field of tall grass, which really felt like we were in a secret part of Singapore.
I think we will explore the North trail next... OR rent mountain bikes to take on the biking trail! That's becasue Chestnut Nature Park (South) is the first nature park in Singapore to have a separate mountain biking and hiking trail. And from what I saw of the many bikers there, the trails looks super fun!
