An Urban Escape from Singapore with a Walk Around Pulau Ubin

Singapore

The Map

The Facts

  • Start or End: I started and finished at the Changi Point Ferry Terminal (Google Map Directions). From the Changi Point Ferry Terminal, it is a short bumboat ride across to the Pulau Ubin Ferry Terminal (Google Map Directions). The bumboats operate from 6 am to 7 pm, but there are no scheduled departure times, so you just need to wait around until enough people turn up to fill a boat (I waited about 10 minutes).
  • Length: 8.9km (5.5mi) in about 3hr
  • Grade: Easy to Medium. The terrain is flat, and the paths are very well maintained. It isn't a long walk, so I would generally classify something like this as easy. However, the heat and humidity do make it tougher than it appears.
  • Date Walked: 6th of September 2019

The Story

It's a walk with plenty of greenery, silence, water views and a brilliant boardwalk over the Chek Jawa Wetlands.

Welcome

Be it seeing the city sights, exploring parklands and gardens, urban walks or day-hikes in the city outskirts, the metrotrekker website details walking routes and hiking trails accessible by foot and public transport in metropolitan areas.

The metrotrekker website provides you with all the details required for metropolitan exploration:

  • navigation formats compatible with common GPS devices, desktop browser/software or mobile apps
  • trail length and difficulty

  • photos/videos
  • attractions or points of interest along the way
  • other walks and hikes nearby
  • often a story or detailed description of the trail (I have personally walked every single trail on the website)
  • a comments section, so feel free to write about your experiences as well
  • and more improvements and resources are continually being added

So let's get outside and explore our great metropolitan areas by foot. Click Here to begin exploring with metrotrekker.
