Southern Ridges & Henderson Waves
Southern Ridges / Henderson Waves
A roughly 10-kilometre green trail linking Mount Faber to Kent Ridge, featuring the 36-metre-high Henderson Waves, Singapore's highest pedestrian bridge.
The Southern Ridges is a roughly 10-kilometre trail that connects Mount Faber, Telok Blangah Hill, Hort Park and Kent Ridge Park. Most of the route runs along wooden boardwalks and elevated walkways through the forest, and from the treetops you can look out over the harbour and the city. The iconic Henderson Waves is about 274 metres long and roughly 36 metres above ground, making it Singapore's highest pedestrian bridge. Its wooden curves resemble rolling ocean waves, and there are curved benches along the deck where you can rest. The bridge is especially lovely when lit up at night. Another elevated forest path, the Forest Walk, winds between the treetops. You can start from HarbourFront MRT station and climb Mount Faber, or walk just the Henderson Waves section. The full route takes about 3 to 4 hours.
