Established in 1883, this 81-hectare reserve is one of only two tropical rainforests worldwide within city boundaries. Begin your expedition at the Visitor Centre, which displays specimens and photographs of the wildlife found here. Then explore the virgin forest itself--huge tropical trees, palms, rattan, lianas and dense carpets of ferns. Look out for mammals like the long-tailed macaques, lesser mouse deer, pangolins and flying lemurs. At the end of the trail at 162.5 metres is the summit of Bukit Timah Hill, the highest point in Singapore, offering a panoramic view of reservoirs in the central catchment district.
