Best Nature preserve in Singapore

A	Abel Amir on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Well constructed path, good for beginners and general visitors. Very steep incline at the very beginning, but gets better as you go higher. There is no scenic view at the summit, but you can get a good view of Bukit Timah by going to the left pathway along the shelter before the 'Summit Steps'. Beware of monkeys, do not carry any plastic bags with you as they tend to snatch it away (thinking that you have food in it).
G	Gecko Chua on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's really a good place to get away from the heat and the crowd. It's a good place for people who practise "forest bathing", you really feel good just spending an hour trekking inside the forest.
J	Jason Kwek on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The tallest peak of Singapore, which one in reasonable health can climb within 30 mins. A good place to escape from the concrete "jungle", but please don't expect to be in "Jurassic" Park cos every thing within Bukit Timah Hill all seems pretty tamed. Be warned that it can get pretty crowded during weekends and national holidays.
Z	Zhiwei Lai on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The whole of Singapore is here! Just kidding! Beautiful place and greenery with a lot of educational signs on the flora and fauna. 4 well marked paths to explore the whole place. It takes about 15 mins to reach the summit using the most direct path. The initial part was a little steep but lasted only about 5 minutes. Just take it easy and check out the greenery. For fewer people, come on a weekday or go to the quarry area which is at the other end of the reserve.
S	Shariffah Raudha on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Did the south view trail that lead to the cave trail. There is a small bricked water catchment from the stream flowing from the top. Trail is relatively harder for younger kids but can be done. Trekkers love to share info esp when they see young kids. Do the trails as it is more interesting than the pathway, or so my kids said.
G	General Twilight on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very good view and there is a hut at the summit for you to rest after the hike. The rock beside the hut shows some information about the hill you have hiked. A great exercise for the people in the city and a great respite from city live. Overall, a good hill to hike
C	CCS on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Can't claim much from the long-overdue trek as I could only manage to stagger up the first stretch (about 100m). That's how bad my cardio-vascular fitness is. Last time, i managed to reach the summit. But that was 2006 and today I am 72 years old. Yet, it was an exhilarating experience despite the hair-raising descent. Just so you know, the steep slope is extremely challenging. But, we saw many elderlies managing easily with triumphant smiles on their faces. Lucky for us, the weather was fine today. The breather at the visitors centre was a relief and a nostalgic one. Nothing changed. Rustic and basic amenities. We will be back for sure ... one day, soon
A	Anthony Tan (Ant) on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great hiking experience here. There are trails on upslope and downstream, for advanced people can venture into the forest trails but with steep high stairs and some walkway are narrow be sure to wear trekking shoes.
