Rock Climbing and Forest Adventure

This week, our group is going to introduce you to some thrilling land sport and adventure!! First one will be Rock Climbing while the other is Forest Adventure.
Rock Climbing in Singapore is a popular adventure sport that both locals as well as tourists indulge in. It is a fast gaining popularity sport in Singapre. Rock climbing is a sport in which participants climb across natural rocks or artificial wall. The goal is to reach the summit of the formation. A safety rope is fastened to the climbers offering complete protection and safety.

With safety ropes attached
This sport not only requires physical strength but IQ because you'll have to know where to place your hands and legs to aid you in moving up to the top of the wall.


Trying hard


I'm reaching!!

Many climbing walls have sprung up in the last few years. These walls mainly reside in educational institutions and SAFRA clubhouses such as Yishun Adventure Sports Club.

Another place where you can try rock climbing is Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. However, it is not available to non-experienced climbers.

The second adventure sport we are introducing is Forest Adventure. Forest adventure is an aerial course built through the trees comprising ladders, bridges, swings, nets, trapezes and giant zip lines. It is situated at amidst the lush greenery of Bedok Reservoir Park.

It was really a hair-raising experience to traverse the course with instructors around, constantly reminding you about the safety precautions. Thus, safety was no issue.

We feel that the mega zip-lines that sort of resemble flying foxes are perhaps the best of the course. When you zip down the line, you will be able to enjoy the cool breeze and astonishing scenery. When you land, it involves a parachute-like landing style which requires you to run while landing.

Woah ! I'm sliding down!~

Touching the water soon!

The rest of the course requires a bit of arm-muscle but should be manageable to everyone.
