Features:
In the Punggol area in the northeastern part of Singapore, there’s some very scenic running on waterfront paths, around Serangoon (Coney) Island, and Waterway Park. Given the extensive number of paths and trails, there are a few options here.
Lor Halus & Serangoon Island Loop. This is a great 8 km loop. Start just across the Lor Halus Red Bridge and run along the waterfront path, enjoying views of the wetlands and the Serangoon East Dam. Cross onto Serangoon Island, also called Coney Island Park. Run for 3 km through this park, which features wide gravel paths through lush greenery (but no water views) at the southern end, and a scenic waterfront section at the northern end. Exit the West Entrance and then head back south on the paved Punggol Promenade Nature Walk path, enjoying views of the channel.
Punggol Promenade & Waterway Park. This is an add-on or alternative. From the Coney Island West Entrance, head north toward Punggol Point, and then run for 1.7 km west along the Northshore on the paved Punggol Promenade Point Walk. Connect to Punggol Waterway Park — a pleasant green space along a waterway, with walking & cycle paths. Head south through the park for 3.3 km to the Lor Halus Bridge. Overall, it’s 6.8 km from Coney West Entrance.
