MOUNT FABER & SOUTHERN RIDGES TRAIL
Map Link: http://www.streetdirectory.com/sg/marang-road/20041_1.html
Getting there from College Green: Take the Circle Line MRT from Botanic Gardens Station to Harbourfront Station (CC29). Take Exit D of the HarbourFront Station and look for Marang Road. The Marang Road Trail will take you to the Cable Car Station.
Remarks: Mount Faber is the starting point of the Southern Ridges Trail, a 10-kilometre walk through four hill parks and one nature reserve. Plan for a whole day out if you intend to walk the entire Southern Ridges Trail. The Henderson Waves is the part of the Trail connecting Mount Faber and Telok Blangah Hill Park and is a spectacular structure high above the road and offering excellent views. If you walk to the Alexandra Road end of the Southern Ridges Trail, you can continue down Alexandra Road to reach Labrador Park MRT Station or the Labrador Nature Reserve.
Alternatively, you can catch the cable car from the Mount Faber cable car station to the resort island of Sentosa.
Mount Faber can be visited after a hard day’s shopping at Vivocity (see – “Shopping”) at the Harbourfront MRT Station. It can also be taken in together with Haw Par Villa just four MRT stops away (see – “Cultural Tours”).
