Walk on water at MacRitchie Reservoir 's Submerged Boardwalk

Visitors to MacRitchie Reservoir Park can now be able to walk on water — at a new submerged boardwalk.

Visitors will be able to walk through shallow waters to see water plants growing alongside the boardwalk and be in close contact with tadpoles, fish, snails and other aquatic life.

Water plants are introduced as they help to purify rainwater before it flows into the reservoir.

LOCATION 2.

For Location 2. You can reached there by LRT - alight at Damai Station. Or park your car at Treelodge@Punggol carpark - this park is just across the main road. Alternate route is by bus service No 84 from Punggol Bus Interchange and alight once you sight the river (Park) along Punggol Road.

These 2 locations are about 500 to 1000 meters apart and are linked. But at the time of my visit these 2 locations are barricaded by wooden wall. When officially opened you can walk along the river from the dam near Punggol Station to Riveria Station. Distance should be about 2km to 3km long.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The 3rd Location should be from Punggol Point Jetty along Punggol Promenade to the above Location 2. Punggol Promenade is a 5-kilometer long public waterfront promenade serving as a key pedestrian connector for the future Punggol Waterfront Town.
