Pasir Ris Park Mangrove Boardwalk
nearest parking is Pasir Ris Carpark B
900m/11mins From Pasir Ris MRT
"Charming and tranquil, Pasir Ris Park is a great place for families to have a fun day out. Aside from modern park activities such as pony rides, water sports, cycling, inline skating and barbeque rental, it also features a carefully preserved six-hectare mangrove forest.

With multiple trails and a Mangrove Boardwalk, visitors can explore the beauty of the mangrove forest and get close to its inhabitants. The three-storey Bird Watching Tower located within the mangrove forest allows bird enthusiasts to observe birds in their natural surroundings. Families can also have hours of fun at the playground, one of the largest in Singapore.

Here’s a small piece of trivia on Pasir Ris Park – Did you know that the park’s name was derived from the Malay word ‘Pasir Ris’, which means 'beach bolt-rope', implying a narrow beach?" - Nparks website

Easy parking and route which are all stroller friendly. There's a toilet break point at the start of the entry way to the Mangrove Board walk. A leisurely stroll which catering 1.5-2hours was more than sufficient.

Depending of time of visit, one maybe lucky enough to catch the resident Hornbills who do swoop down low, as well as one of the Otter Families who frequent the area.

Pasir Ris Central Hawker Centre is just located across the road from Carpark B which makes for a perfect meal pit-stop.

You might also be interested in these other two picturesque board walks, though may not have as each to spot biodiversity as seen here.
