Travel Itinerary

Short 10-min bumboat ride to Singapore’s last rural island; watch for sea eagles en route.

Start the steep 600-m trail that winds past disused granite cliffs to the island’s highest peak.

Reach the 76-m granite summit for sweeping views of Ubin’s jungle, Chek Jawa wetlands and the mainland skyline.

Follow the rugged 8-km bike trail on foot past mangroves, quarries and lookout decks with great sea breeze.

Reward yourself with sambal stingray and coconut after the island trek; stalls open till late.

Begin the 10-km Southern Ridges trek from Singapore’s second-highest hill, crossing the cable-car arch to Telok Blangah.

Stroll the 36-m-high timber wave bridge for skyline and harbour views; keep eyes peeled for white-bellied sea eagles.

Cross the elevated boardwalk through secondary forest, descending toward the National University of Singapore grounds.

End the trek learning about the 1942 Battle of Pasir Panjang before a well-earned coffee at the colonial bungalow café.

Finish the trip with a guided walking trail among nocturnal predators—perfect cool-down after three days of jungle climbs.
