Nature reserve in urban Singapore

Sungei Buloh Wetland Natural Reserve is an uncommon place in urban Singapore. Coming here, you can spot crocodiles, mudskippers and monitor lizards. It is a fun hike for kids to explore the forest. Be careful to check weather forecast before your visit as the trail is slippery if it was raining the night before.

Let's Go To Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve 🌳

I always love it when my kids are close to nature and on days that we are all free, I would definitely make a point to bring my boys out to be little explorers. This time round, I took them to Sungei Buloh wetland Reserve. It was a great opportunity for us to bond as a family but it was also an amazing time for us to exercise we hike or walk through the different trails at Sungei buloh wetland reserve. If your eyes are sharp, you may even spot crocodiles at the wetland reserves, birds, mudskipper and so many more animal species. As we all learn about these creatures, we also took time to appreciate the greenery around us and enjoy the fresh air at the reserve. There is also an educational corner with specimens of plants and animals, and it's great for kids to learn new information. A small maze area with stepping wooden blocks is there for kids to play as well. Besides that, you can climb uo a watch tower and that gives you an amazing view of the wetlands and the surrounding water area. My family and I already can't wait for our next visit to Sungei buloh, you should plan a trip there too. #wecreate

The Mysterious Mangrove

Wanting a change of scenery, to breathe in the scent of nature and admire the diverse biodiversity at your own pace? Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve is the perfect escape for you - rows after rows of mangrove forests, all ready for your exploration. Who would’ve known that this mysterious mangrove has so many precious views hidden and wildlife waiting for you to uncover. I have wandered through the wetlands on several occasions and have always enjoyed the game of hide-and-seek with their seemingly resident crocodile, spotting the camouflaged mudskippers and enjoying the view out in the open while watching the huge school of fishes swim by and frequently leaping out of the clear waters. Tip: Bird-watchers paradise - visit early in the morning when you will be able to clearly hear the birds singing. #sungeibuloh #wetlands #nature #mangrove #biodiversity #crocodile #wildlife #hiking #naturetrail #naturetripping

Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve Singapore trip

Took my family for some adventure walk to this wetland reserve. Really surprised to see so many animals/reptiles/birds in this area. My kids were excited to see them at such close distance. We started the day earlier about 0730hr on a weekday and the crowd was manageable. This is a highly recommended place to visit and do some family bonding. I am sure this is a place where every visit is going to be different and very enjoyable one! 👍😉

Amazing nature experience in singapore 🇸🇬

A place with lots of greenery, that will be interesting for nature lovers. Marshy wetlands with varieties of birds and insects. If you are lucky you may get a chance to spot crocodiles. Quite place for long walks, with less crowded surroundings. Fun outdoor place in Singapore for some wildlife spotting. Beware of the intelligent monkeys and potentially dangerous snakes and reptiles. #2023TravelWish #MyTripVlog #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #nationalpark

Tranquility in Bustling Singapore

#CelebrateWithTrip#sungei buloh#nature The Sungei Buloh Nature Reserve is a gem in Bustling Singapore. Nestled in western part of the island, it offers tranquility in hectic and bustling Singapore. Visited on a Saturday evening. Parking was easy and the park was not crowded. There are a variety of flora and fauna and we spotted frogs, insects, spiders, giant iguana and even a huge crocodile 🐊 in the waters. The sprawling park is huge and it will take more than a visit to cover the entire park. But it is definitely worth making another trip to be back to this lovely place. Perhaps in the morning to enjoy the early morning fresh air and spot some birds.

Sungei buloh wetland reserve

#celebratewithtrip address: 60 Kranji Way, #01-00. Singapore 739453 hiking along wetland reserve was interesting as there might be a chance you encounter monitor lizards crossing your path. it’s a man made mangrove ecosystem so aside from birds please expect a lot of mosquitoes (bring repellent!) was quite an enjoyable hike; personally felt the place was small. finish hiking that area in an hour? nice views as it overseas johor. cute chestnut structure that you can only see at sungei buloh. I went on Sunday so there were ALOT of people having a picnic there. enjoyable hike overall as it’s mostly cement road :)

Must visit when you want to feel the nature

Everyone knows Singapore is one of the eco-friendly city/country around the world. For that, there are quite a lot of parks that you can visit in Singapore to just feel the nature and get some fresh air. Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve is one of them. Though it is a bit far from the centre area of the city, the transportation is quite convenient to reach anywhere in Singapore, so was not that hard to get there. I was able to look around a little explanation space/galleries, walk the nature and was lucky enough to see an eagle at the dock! It would be a new experience for both adults and children to walk around a wetland reserve and meet a new animal/lizard/bird friend! #tripblazers #mytripvlog

Wildlife at the Wetlands

Not commonly a must-visit on a tourist’s list, Sungei Buloh Wetlands Reserve is a paradise for bird watchers and nature lovers. Keep your eyes peeled for the mangrove wildlife here.

Gardenesia

This is tucked away in the northern part of the island. A friend mentioned about it, and I was surprised by the crowd when I got there around noon on a Sunday - maybe the weekend crowd visiting the nearby Sungei Buloh Wetland & Kranji, and it was raining earlier. The rurual ambience is nice and relaxing, with the restaurant facing a large pool. Offers both western and local food. The food is tasty, presentation is nice too. I love the ceasar salad and the seafood platter. They also sell beer, quite a number of varieties. Price wise, reasonable with that kind of food standard and environment. Will definitely be back again! #happylaborday #rediscoversg #maydaytrip #urbanexplorer #springblossoms

Sungai Buloh Wetland Reserve in Singapore✨ 🇸🇬

#singaporetrip I walked to Sungai Buloh Wetland Reserve at 7 o'clock and arrived at a place where no one else had taken the 925 bus from Kranji to Kranji Reserve Carpark B. After crossing the street, I arrived at Visitor Center. I chose the longest route from Visitor Center, Coastal Trail, and then walked to Wetland Center before encountering people. Mosquitoes are more primitive and prefer to walk around Buloh Tidal Ponds more. Okay! This is because I arrived early. Haha, the reason why I chose Forest Tra | Returning to Visitor Center is a short journey, and soon I arrived for the first time. Sungai Buloh Wetland Reserve # Walking # Singaporean Life # Hiking in Singapore opens at 7am, giving me the feeling of contracting the entire park. There's really no one around! I've been careful of crocodile signs all the way, and I feel a bit flustered. As I was about to end, I encountered a few foreign tourists. Suddenly, one of them said they should have seen the crocodile, so I chased them along. But in the end, I still didn't see it. I returned along the way and saw someone with a professional camera coming in. It was my first time walking back to nature and spending time with myself

Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve

#myhiddengems This one is for fellow nature enthusiasts! I recently visited the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve in Singapore. This stunning nature reserve is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts and anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in nature and wildlife. I highly recommend visiting during the winter months, from September to March, when the migratory birds are present, and the weather is slightly cooler.

The Kingfisher Pod

#singaporetrip This coastal trail is very well built and maintained. I highly recommend it. It takes you to the water’s edge and you get to observe the wetlands from a comfortable vantage point. the most "touristy" and "instagrammable" attractions, the Kingfisher pod. Considered friendly for small compact pram, especially good if you have those parent steered toddler bicycles. However there are some zones with steps so do expect some workout. But that is the point of coming here, to workout a little.

Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve

#singaporetrip Nature reserve with trees plus some nice flowers and wild life terrain. Very peaceful watching birds, squirrel, monitor lizards, fishes and if you are lucky you might see the crocs & otters family. Good place for a hike while watching birds and eagles. Between November to February you can come across many migratory birds. Apart from the birds, we spotted few snakes, crocodile and monitor lizards.

The wetland parks in Singapore are just too beautiful, and there are birds too

The Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve is a nice spot for trekking. Natural mangroves, a paradise for migratory birds, a haven for bird watchers. You will see 🐊 a tailless 🐊 living there. Watching it stay completely still, surrounded by various fish. Living there peacefully. Definitely worth a visit. The reserve is quite pretty and well-maintained. Step into nature! I love it.
