If your gym’s treadmill is starting to bore you, get out and about — these outdoor running routes will make you fall in love with Singapore all over again.

Are you the type to stick to a single running route through your neighbourhood without deviating from your usual path? Or worse, are you the type to run indoors on a treadmill, where there is nothing but a blank wall in front of you and the only interesting sight is the sweaty person next to you doing the same thing? If that’s the case, it’s time for a change.

Singapore is, contrary to popular belief, a country that boasts plenty of good jogging locations with unique scenery and landmarks to keep you coming back for more. From the sprawling greenery of Punggol Waterway Park, to the uphill trails along the Southern Ridges, we’ve rounded up some great routes to make your exercise routine feel more like an exciting adventure instead of a bore. Need to make it even more interesting? We recommend a quick round of running backwards – it’s apparently even than regular running!

Head up to the gallery to check out our favourite scenic running routes in Singapore – pencil in a new destination each week into your fitness journal!
