Bukit Batok Nature Park: A Quarry-Focused Walk
Come for the quarry pond, stay for a leafy walk. Bukit Batok Nature Park is the 36-hectare park off Bukit Batok East Avenue 2 and Avenue 6, not Little Guilin at Bukit Batok Town Park.

First, check you have the right park
Searching “Bukit Batok quarry” can bring up two different places. For this walk, save Bukit Batok Nature Park. Little Guilin belongs to Bukit Batok Town Park, so its photos and directions will send you elsewhere.
Drivers can use the paid car park at Bukit Batok East Avenue 2. NParks lists 99 car spaces. If using public transport, plan the final bus or walking leg to the entrance rather than treating a nearby MRT station as the park gate.

Keep the quarry pond as the main event
Follow the park route towards the quarry viewing plaza beyond the playground. The pond and rock face are the main reason to choose this park; you can enjoy them without turning the visit into a workout.
For a shorter outing, walk to the viewing area, pause, then return. For more walking, add the surrounding park paths. There are slopes in this landscape, so do not assume every optional detour is as straightforward as the main stop.
Add the memorial only if you want a longer visit
The World War II memorial site at Lorong Sesuai is a separate historical stop you can add. It is not necessary to complete a quarry visit, and the extra approach should be part of the plan rather than a surprise at the end.
NParks lists the park as open 24 hours. Go in daylight for the quarry view, keep pets leashed and note that fishing is prohibited. The photographs below are dated June 2026 and July 2007: they show the place, not a guarantee of today’s vegetation or sightlines.
