Eco-Tourism and Adventures in Singapore

In this section, we list some of the larger and more interesting natural enclaves such as Bukit Timah Nature Reserve and Pulau Ubin, where the flora and fauna have more and less been left to take their own course. These green-lung areas, while well-known to locals, are slightly off the beaten track for most tourists. For information on Singapore's more famous national parks and nature attractions, such as the Botanic Gardens or the Zoological Gardens, see our Attractions section.

If you're really into ecology and the environment, the Singapore Environment Council (+65 337 6062) and the Nature Society of Singapore (+65 741 2036) are always happy to help with your queries. They will also be able to give you the names of nature guides, who can bring you on a "green tour" or bird-watching excursion of Singapore.
