"If you wish to visit the nature park, cross an overhead bridge that links to Beauty World Centre and Beauty World MRT station.

You can also enter the nature park via the Rail Corridor."

 

seems to be  entry from the rail corridor (opposite Beauty World)

on the overhead bridge, i think they meant using the OHB from Beauty World 4th flr hawker to cross Jalan Anak Bukit. That'll bring one to the Rail corridor.

i wonder if can access from Rifle Range Road, given the name of the park.

Went there today. Nice cool weather. 

The carpark and visitor reception hall is along Rifle Range road. Check the attached picture.

As for public transport, nearest mrt is Beauty World. Enter Beauty World and take the escalator up all the way the same level as the hawker centre. Right behind is the exit to the  overhead bridge. The bridge connects directly to the boardwalk of the Rifle Range trail.

You so fast go there liao. Over there no rain when you were there? Even no raining but the ground is wet from rain. Lol.

So is this carpark also near to the bt timah former railway station area? Can park here and walk to the railway station?

yes quite near the old railway station. From here, walk down rifle range road to the rail corridor and walk south. 10-15 minutes away by foot from the carpark if u don't go wrong way.

or just park at King Albert Park (KAP) mall and walk to rail corridor

thanks for the map. Very useful. i now realise i went past this place on RRR a few mths back when it was boarded up. 

did you by chance see any bicycle parking space there? i might just ride there instead of driving if the weather is good.

If plan to go to the old railway station and rifle range nature park, think this carpark would be convenience.

Went to this Rifle Range Nature Park yesterday. Surprisingly can see many people even on a weekday afternoon. I guess should be more crowded on weekends. Seems like the park does not say very big, only walked on Rambai Boardwalk, Gliders Boardwalk, Colugo Trail, Quarry Wetland and Colugo Deck. All distance not say very long. But managed to walk to the old Bt Timah railway station from the Nature Park. Over there not many people, most people were at the Rifle Range Nature Park. Saw the signage states that walk to Macritchie is around 3km+, like not very far?!

This Rifle Range Nature Park seems like go one time, can no need to go back again soon. Cause nothing much to explore. Or maybe i missed out some trail in the park? Lol.
