Cycling in Singapore
Including Mandai Loop. On the map.
The vibe
Pedaling through Singapore is a study in seamless urban infrastructure, where you weave along coastal park connectors and tree-lined expressways that make getting across the island surprisingly smooth. The cooler months wrapping around the year-end monsoon bring occasional refreshing breezes, though the riding remains a year-round pursuit if you time your outings to dodge the afternoon sun. You will encounter a mix of weekend leisure riders and commuters, leaning toward an organized yet independent way to see the city on two wheels.

A classic training route for Singapore cyclists passing through the reservoir catchments and forested hills of the north. The undulating terrain offers a rare sustained rhythm of short climbs and technical descents amidst lush secondary rainforest.
Access. Easily accessible from Central Singapore via Thomson Road or Mandai Road.
Notes. Watch for heavy traffic during peak hours on arterial connectors; early morning weekend rides are popular.
