Coast-to-Coast Trail (Central)

Cross the whole island: a signposted 36 km trail from Jurong Lake Gardens to Coney Island via parks and heartlands.

Moderate West Singapore Leisure ride ~36 km point to point

About this route

The Coast-to-Coast Trail is exactly what it says: a signposted route across the entire island, from Jurong Lake Gardens in the west to Coney Island in the north-east. It stitches together lakes, nature parks, heartland connectors and river corridors, with numbered checkpoints so you always know how far you have come.

Unlike the coastal loops it cuts through the middle of Singapore, so you see the island change from garden city to forest fringe, HDB heartland and waterway country, all in a single ride. There are traffic-light crossings and a few pushes, so treat it as a half-day adventure rather than a non-stop training ride.

Open Route in Google Maps needs nothing extra. It opens the Maps app (or website) with the whole route already plotted as pins, ready to cycle. The GPX download is useful if you navigate with an app like Komoot or Strava, or a Garmin/Wahoo bike computer. On longer routes Google may smooth a corner or two, since it draws its own path between the pins; the map below shows our fuller route line.
