Getting there from College Green: Take the Circle Line MRT from the Botanic Gardens MRT Station towards HabourFront. Alight at the Labrador Park MRT Station (CC27). Walk behind the MRT station until you arrive at the wooden mangrove boardwalk leading to the seafront.

 

Remarks: The large, sprawling Labrador Nature Reserve comprises a forested hill, a coastal park, a mangrove boardwalk, and a coastal boardwalk past ultra-luxe housing and marinas. The top of the hill has a platform offering great views of Singapore’s western coastline (The walk up the hill is often overlooked but well worth the effort).

 

The Labrador Nature Reserve Walk is sort of connected to the Southern Ridges. From the MRT Station, walk up Alexandra Road and in 700 metres, you will see the Alexandra Arch, a nice bridge connecting the HortPark and the “Forest Trail” portion of the Ridges. This leads to Telok Blangah Hill Park and thereafter to Mount Faber.
