Before you go

Which MRT station is closest to Punggol Park?

Buangkok and Hougang are the stations NParks lists, because Punggol Park is at the junction of Hougang Avenue 8 and 10, not in Punggol town. Punggol MRT is the wrong stop. NParks does not print walk times, so check a map for the route. The park is also on the North Eastern Riverine Loop of the Park Connector Network.

Can I fish or release animals at Punggol Park?

You may fish only at designated spots, and releasing animals into the pond is not allowed. The lake at the centre of the park is about 5 hectares, and only the marked spots are for casting. NParks' general park rules also ask you to keep noise low and not feed wildlife.

Can I bring my dog to Punggol Park, and where do I park?

NParks' park rules ask dog owners to clean up and keep dogs on a leash, with a muzzle if necessary. The carpark along Hougang Avenue 8 has 25 car lots, 5 motorcycle lots and 1 lot for handicapped visitors, and parking fees apply. The park is open 24 hours and wheelchair accessible.
