The take
A walk through what's left of a Hainanese kampong, the village that once stood in this forest. The trails are short and shaded, and Windsor Nature Park next door makes it a longer morning.
Good to know
Free; typically open 7am–7pm, like most nature parks
Trails past the ruins of the former Hainanese village
Macaques live here, so keep food out of reach
Finding it: Thomson Nature Park, off Upper Thomson Road, next door to Windsor Nature Park if you want to walk both
