The North Western day ride

The North Western day ride
For those interested in riding with very unusual unique experiences in Urban Singapore:

http://www.kranjicountryside.com/template/farmpreneurs.html
There are a whole lot of farms in this area, not really what people expect from urban Singapore. These are however not the huge farms that we see overseas but specialised focused enterprises.

The plan will be to do the visit leisurely on bicycles going from farm to farm....
Yes this can be done hiking and driving.....

Note there is a big loop for the road
Groups can vote for which farms you wanna see - as these farms are really unique to Singapore



To get there, travel towards Kranji Way, head toward the Kranji Dam where you will have a view of the reservoir and of Johor across the Straits.

A good parking and
Meeting point:

Kranji Reservoir Car Park

From here it is only 2km to

Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve,

Singapore's wetlands are preserved here and migratory birds come here to rest on their long travels north and south when the weather changes. It there can be said that Singapore is also a transit/hotel stop for the birds as well as Changi airport is for the human travelers. Take a walk along the paths and hide in the many viewing platforms where you can chance upon both local and migratory birds, monitor lizards, possible crocodiles if lucky...

After the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve, a possible different experience is travel about 5.5km west to visit Hay Dairies Pte Ltd , a Goat Farm

as well as the Jurong Frog Farm is the only frog breeder in Singapore.

After visiting the above, one would have worked up a little appetite, so pop by the Poison Ivy Bistro where the cafe provides local feasts in an organic farm environment.
very nice home style cooking ;-)
