After much debate, delay and hesitation due to the hot weather, exam and tight constraint, we finally made our way to the Southern Ridges.
We arrived at the HarbourFront MRT. Behind it, there is a particular car park where Marang Trial starts. It is quite a long walk with shady trees on both sides of the trial. This trial brings us to the Mount Faber Park. The cable station is at this park.
Along the walk in this park, we can see the southern coast on one side. The other side is full of housing blocks. We can even see the Merlion at Sentosa.
We want to go to Henderson Waves. We followed the signs and after a long walk, we finally saw it. The Henderson Waves is quite a short wooden bridge. The "waves" are on one side of the bridge.
At the end of the Henderson Waves, we continue our journey on Forest Walk. This walk is another long bridge made of metal. It is a great contrast with Henderson Waves in terms of the materials used to make them.
The Forest Walk is longer than Henderson Waves. The Walk brings us closer to Alexandra Arch. We were thinking if we should continue to Hort Park after walking for close to two hours. In the end, when we reached Alexandra Arch, we saw the bus-stop near River Valley High School which could bring us home.
The Arch is just a short bridge with a particular arch design. During the night time, it would look more beautiful because it would be lighted up.
It is amazing that we could complete this journey in about two hours. The weather was still not hot because we started off early.
I think during our next trip, we would reach there around 8am to avoid the hot sun.
