Let's do a sunset walk/ hike and trace the Old Jurong Heritage Railway Track & Trail!
This Old Jurong Railway & Heritage Trail runs alongside the Ulu Pandan River and 'longkangs' through some old Ghim Moh flats, Dover Park as well as some scenic bridges.
With greenery and lush vegetation along the way, members are encouraged to keep their eyes and ears peeled for the Red-Capped Woodpeckers, Kingfishers, as well as the White Egrets that might dart into the canal for a drink. Try to catch sight of the tall Grey Heron (Andrea cinerea) as well that wades slowly in the shallow waters of Sungei Ulu Pandan while using its bill to prey on fish.
You might also catch sight of the magnificent Purple Neck Heron perching on the opposite bank of Sungei Ulu Pandan. Certain sections along the Park Connector are covered in lush greenery, providing a rustic charm. And chances of spotting huge iguanas (monitor lizards) about 2 m long is a sight to behold.
Also at times during the flowering season of Tabebuia rosea, visitors will be welcomed by the colourful sight of flowering trees such as Callerya atropurpurea and Saraca thaipingensis, which features yellow flower blooms on its tree trunk and branches.
During this walk, we will also bring you past some nice bridges to take photos of the remnants of the Old Jurong Railway's cast iron track bridge spanning above the Ulu Pandan River and the Ulu Pandan PCN. The cast iron railway structure was constructed sometime in nineteen century as part of the transportation infrastructure by the British Colonial.
This evening stroll will end at the scenic lookout point at Pandan Reservoir for us to catch the breathtaking crimson sunset reflected on its waters.
Thereafter, those who wish may proceed to the nearby Teban Gardens Food Centre for drinks/ dinner (optional) with your new found friends.
This is a scenic 2.5 hr sunset walk/hike organized for our TLC members to meet, chit-chat and catch up with new & old friends in small groups of 5 to 10 pax.
