Kranji Marshes

Kranji marshes park may not cover a huge span of area but it is definitely still a haven for nature-lovers and bird-watchers alike. Took a short jog around and was greeted with a serene view of an abundance of greenery and several bird-watchers with their professional cameras, ever-ready! The Raptor Tower takes you up a flight of stairs and allows you to admire a stunning unblocked view of the park. Tip: Try also spotting wildlife like the monitor lizard, up from high above. #kranjimarshes #marsh #wetlands #natureview #singapore #naturetrail #naturephotography #singaporeparks

Had a peaceful walk on a Monday morning through the Kranji Marshes--Singapore’s largest freshwater marshland. It was my first visit there since it opened in 2016 to provide an important habitat in the Kranji area for the conservation of biodiversity, especially for marsh birds. There was no public transport here on weekdays so I was one of the few visitors there. Most people come here for bird watching. There are a few huts for bird watchers to sit while waiting for birds. There was also an observatory tower called the Raptor Tower. I spotted snake skin at the top of the tower so I guess there was a snake which decided that it was a good place to moult? #kranjj #birdwatching #nature #hiking #wildlife #mushroom #kranjimarshes

#exlporesgtogether #exploresgtogether #momentssg #attraction #nature Tucked away in the northmost part of 🇸🇬 is the idyllic Kranji Marshes, best accessed by car as there are very few buses that actually come here, and it is difficult to find a taxi as well. Great alternative to the usual nature places like Bukit Timah Nature Reserve especially for the adventurous who want to explore new places! Along the way, trod along the road specially paved for nature seekers and try to look out for the different types of inhabitants there. Beware of little animals sharing the path; had chanced upon a 🐌 the size of my finger. A watch tower which is the end point and the highlight of the marshes, is provided for nature explorers to climb up and take in the birds eye view of the marshes, and to appreciate the serenity and the fresh air as well. Do remember to bring along insect repellent if you are a mosquito magnet and wear proper comfortable attire, and do expect alot of walking too!
