Sunday Adventure - Lower Pierce Reservoir


We felt that we need some workout, so we decided to go to different parks in Singapore.

This morning our destination is Lower Pierce Reservoir. This is my first time there. Its a nice place. Its clean and green and spacious. Its very peaceful too. We decided to take the natural trail.

The Lower Peirce Trail is a 900m boardwalk that takes you through mature secondary forest. This forest forms part of the Central Catchment Nature Reserve and covers an area of about 2,000 hectares. Many of the trees you see around you are over a hundred years old. These trees were once cleared for the cultivation of rubber in the 1930s. Natural regeneration over the years has seen some of the original forest species recolonising, but it would take hundreds of years for the richness of a primary forest to form again. Interpretative signboards along the boardwalk reveal the mysteries of nature and allow for a self-guided tour along the fringes of the Lower Peirce forest.

Its such a nice place, i definitely wana go back again and this time with my camera.

After the walk, we went to have Roti Prata. 2 plain prata with hot teh talik, what more should we ask for in life, haha. Nice and relax Sunday morning. Looking forward to our next walk.
