Kudos to the designer! It really IS one crazy bridge!! Have you seen the way it slopes up at the seating area? Thinking of doing a extreme skating video there with skaters coming down the bridge then swinging up the slope of the seating area in a crazy wallride!! Illegal of course...but that's what makes it all the more exciting!!

 

Skate or Die!!

Inspired by the other thread on Treetop Walk, let me just put out my videos on Forest Walk and Henderson Waves here.  NParks is doing a great job in creating all these connectors, all free of charge, and a great place to bring the family.   Why?  Nowadays, I think we spend too much time indoors, on the internet etc... we don't get enough sunshine and don't go outdoors enough.  Also we don't exercie enough.  Walking is a great form of exercise too.

Enjoy and have a wonderful 2016.  God bless.

It's beautiful but it's mostly "silicone" Not natural, all paved paths.

 

Now they are also doing something to the rail corridor while work is ongoing at bukit timah nature park.

 

Hope they will leave the natural environment untouched as much as possible.

I use to run Bukit Timah nature reserve and trek the trails especially the one with the long wooden steps. It is a 3.5km from the base , up the hill, down slope into the trails and then up back again through the 500++ steps and then back to the base. The distance is not that long, but the 80m-100m vertical up-down, up-down inside the trails are crazy. But burn calories like mad.

 

Can't wait for BT to re-open again.
