#20, Walk to the Southern Ridges

SOUTHERN RIDGES@http://www.nparks.gov.sg/southernridges.html#hp

The Southern-Ridges Walks encompasses the Marang Trail, Faber Walk, Henderson Wave, Hilltop Walk, Forest Walk, Alexandra Arc, HortPark and the Canopy Walk @ Kent Ridge. There's actually a trail all the way from Marang Trail to West Coast Park. Wooo~ Went there quite recently. The trail's pretty loooooooong and tiring, so getcha trekking shoes, lots of water and food reserves and lots of energy if you intend to go :)



Early and wonderful morning to trek :) Bright and sunny!


Chocolate Pansy (Thanks July for ID!)


Henderson waaaaaave! The architecture there's pretty cool. Lots of curves.

Spidey spidey, not sure of it's ID.

Taken at the Danish Seamen's Church. It's very old and has a large large bell-shaped roof.

View from the Henderson Waaaaaave, pretty nice cos you're super high up!

Philippine Glossy Starling


Noisy roosting flocks where its juvenile looks different from a matured adult. Feeds mainly on fruits and hardly visits the ground.

Hilltop walk! It was high elevation once again. Halfway, the thingy was actually shaking! Was it going to topple?! O.o

Kent Ridge! :] Less hot here, but quite a monotonous walk through here.
