Hindhede Nature Park in Bukit Timah

Most of us are familiar with popular hiking spots like MacRitchie Reservoir or Mount Faber. But if you prefer to explore something non-mainstream, Hindhede Nature Park is a lesser known family-friendly hiking trail that is tucked away next to Bukit Timah Nature Reserve.

It is home to some of the most exotic birds in Singapore and a quarry, plus easy walking trails so you can bring your whole family hiking here.

Things to note when visiting Hindhede Nature Park

Much like visiting any park or nature reserve in Singapore, there are a couple of things you might want to keep in mind before gearing up for the trails of Hindhede Nature Park.

For starters, although you’re free to organise a cute little picnic in the park, make sure to dispose of your rubbish properly after you’re done eating. It goes without saying that littering is a huge no-no, so bin those plastic bottles once you’re done rehydrating.

You’re bound to bump into Hindhede Nature Park’s many furry and feathered inhabitants on your visits, but remember to only view the wildlife from a safe distance. Plucking of the plants and flowers in the park is prohibited too, as the flora and fauna here are protected. Bringing along mosquito repellent is also recommended to keep the mozzies at bay.

Finally, you’ll want to wear a pair of shoes that’s appropriate for walking to prevent any injuries while you’re roaming the park. Sunscreen is a must when the sun’s out, and pack an umbrella just in case it pours. Of course, staying hydrated is of utmost importance, especially in Singapore’s humid climate, so bring along your biggest of bottles and fill it to the brim.
