We understand it. Sudallo in your favorite boxing gym in Singapore It is very funny, but sometimes you also want to enjoy nature at a slow pace. So, whether you have been boxing, doing Muay Thai or Brazilian jiu-jitsu in our studies, we recommend that you dedicate time to rest.

But rest doesn’t simply mean sleeping. A great idea is to take a slow walk or take an excursion in the abundant natural parks of Singapore. Active recovery It is often considered more beneficial than rest without movement since it can maintain blood flow and support muscle recovery. So if you hit your mixed martial arts hardly gymIt is time to try a short excursion for your next day of active rest.

Why is active rest is so important?

However, rest and recovery are also essential since it is necessary to give time to the body to shelter and strengthen yourself among training. In evolve MMA, we think that spending time in nature is a great way to work in recovery time between high -level martial arts lessons.

Our first 3 less known places to walk and do an excursion to Singapore

Singapore has many fantastic jungle, parks, coastal walks and basins open to the public. But it may be difficult to avoid the crowd, especially on the weekends. These three lesser -known hiking seats can offer a truce for those who try to avoid the crowd but still want to go out and enjoy the gifts of nature. While the ground in these points is generally flat, steep slopes and muddy soils are still present. Wear a couple of good shoes and put sun protection as it can really sunny. There may also be insects, so remember your insect repellent.

You could also meet wildlife as these points are their natural habitat. Remember not to get closer to them: try to back calmly and avoid the area. If you are lucky, you could also come across the lights of the delicate monitor, turtles and even the sun in the sun!

1) Labrador Park Walk

Labrador Park offers a spectacular view of the coast and the sea on the edge of a secondary forest. The park is close to Vivocity, so if you need to prepare snacks and drinks or head to the shopping center to cool off, it is easily accessible. The closest stop is the MRT station of Labrador Park for those who travel via MRT.

If you start from there, the 2.1 km path includes three distinct segments: Alexandra Garden Trail, Berlayer Creek Mangrove Trail and Bukit Chermin Boardwalk. Follow the path to attend the swamps full of wildlife and find the only rocky cliff on the sea on the main island of Singapore at Bukit Chermin. If you wish, you can enter the mangrove and coastal areas.

This quiet natural point contains 40% of the extinction and vulnerable plant species of Singapore. For history enthusiasts, you can also cross the smallest paths when you reached the Labrador Nature Reserve. The paths lead to historical bunkers, tunnels, a strong, machine gun poles and artillery remains that they date back to 1892. You will spend about 45 minutes by completing the entire routeBut if you keep walking downhill, you can reach The ridges of the Southwhich is also gorgeous.

2) Thomson Nature Park Walk

This path is located between Old Upper Thomson Road and Upper Thomson Road. Open at the end of 2019, for now it is relatively new and unknown. If you are coming from MRT, stop in Lentor Mrt and walk 2.3 km via Yio Chu Kang Road before turning right in Upper Thomson Road. Another way is to enter through Old Upper Thomson Park Connector (enter via Macaque or Langur Trail).

This site was a former Hainanese village, so the park is designed to offer visitors a Kampung life experience before the 80s. There are five paths you can take. If you like to see the remains of the Hainanese village, explore the ruins and figs of the figs, which will lead you to overcome the building bases, a well and stone walls of the former village.

There is also a wide variety of floral and fauna. Take the Stream and Ferns Trail, which allows visitors to appreciate the fresh water habitat in the Thomson Natural Park and observe the diversity of ferns and aquatic animals.

If you are reasonably fit, this Park of 50 hectares It will not require more than an hour to explore. But seeing that it is located near the famous Casuarina Prata to Upper Thomson and some MRT stops from Springleaf Prata, perhaps it is not a bad idea for “Balik Kampung” (Malay to go home) and enjoy a deserved Prata Roti.

3) Windsor Nature Park excursion

Another hiking path near Thomson, Windsor Nature Park excursion It is larger to 75 hectares than the Thomson Nature Park walk. The park is also more secluded. Visitors must walk from Upper Thomson’s MRT station and turn into Venus Drive.

It is a park with natural reserves of central hydrographic basins and has three hiking paths. If you prefer to walk on the sidewalk, this path adapts to you. But there are also traces in the jungle for those who love to be completely immersed in nature.

The three paths offer a different experience. The short trail Hanguana has rare autochthonous plants, while the Dongo Trail is a 150-meter under-theopia walk on a raised catwalk. Visitors can admire the discreet of the secondary forest and enjoy the fresh repaired air. If you can continue, turn left at the end of Dongo to conquer the Macrithie Treetop walk.

But for the Audace, take a turn to the right in Venus Loop, the Windsor Marsh habitat, with several freshwater courses. It is relatively isolated because it can become muddy, but it is a beautiful photographic point.

In total, it will take about an hour to explore Hanguana and Dongo! But if you continue, you can pass beyond Macritchie Treetop Walk and Bukit Timah. It will take more two hours.

There are many other places in Singapore to be wrapped in nature. But if being in nature is not your cup of tea in your rest days, we recommend them Active rest activities with low impact. Active rest, in particular those with low impact, can help the body adapt, reconstruct the muscles and provide time for the body tissue to be sheltered.
