The Pasir Ris Mangrove Boardwalk Trail

First published on 23 Oct 2007.

A more unusual offering, the island’s third-largest seafront park, housing a five-hectare mangrove swamp reserve that you can walk through via a wooden boardwalk. Be warned, though, mangrove swamps are an acquired taste (or rather, smell), even for the most dedicated nature lover, but persevere and you can see all sorts of inhabitants, like mudflats and ponds, birds galore and insects you would never encounter in normal urban life.
