Reviews
It is literally an ulu place but where birds lay their eggs. These marshes provide important natural habitat to many flora and fauna that are fast diminishing - a wonderful place for nature lovers to immerse themselves in biodiversity.
It is not exactly convenient to reach if one does not drive but there are no places that are ever too far here in Singapore.

It’s a relatively short walk, but it is a beautiful one. Ornithologists and bird watchers can enjoy a lot here.. the lily ponds along the way are very attractive.
Recommended for solo-couple-family walks.
I enjoy solo walks often here..
I tried to get there by public transport. The nearest bus station is around 3km from the gate. The road is generally deserted so you can walk. However, there is no walking pavement so you need to walk on the road. You can take Sgd 5 day bus pass. The timing can be found at the park web site.
It was quiet and only a few people this morning. The route from the gate to the raptor can be further improve by planting more plants in both side of the road. Right now it is more like just normal plants growing on both side. You will need a pair of good binoculars otherwise hardly see any birds on the ground level.
Slightly disappointed. Was expecting more, like a mini Sungei Buloh.
Shuttle bus service to the park is provided on weekends. Park area opened to public is restricted to 1km long service road, leading to an observation tower. From the tower, you get to see the greenery around the banks of Kranji river. Good place for bird watching and photography.
Easy walk (1km to the tower) with great greenery and wildlife to be seen. Glad to have caught so many birds, but think it would have been better if I went earlier because then it would be less hot (I went at 10am). There are some unshaded parts on the way in so wear lots of sunblock! The view from the raptor tower is great and the breeze is nice.
Other hikers warned us of mosquitoes as they were overwhelmed and had to abandon the walk. We were fortunate as we had applied lemon grass repellent before we started.
The place was easy to find. It was just beside Gallop Kranji Farm Resort.
Once you've parked, you can see Baya Weaver birds' nests in the reeds and if you stand for a while, you'll see the weaver birds flying to their nests. Further in, you can see a Pied Fantail in its cup-sized nest in the tree near the rest area.
There is so much to see here and there are hides and the raptor tower further in which gives you a good view of the surrounding area.
I would come back here again to see if I can spot more birds.
It is kid friendly too as my child was able to walk all the way in and up the tower and back. The whole trip took about an hour for us. Parking is very limited. There seems to be a shuttle bus service on weekends and public holidays which could help people get there, which is a great service for a public park.
