👉Dover Forest Hike
Dover Forest is a 33 ha forest located along Sungei Ulu Pandan, starting from Ghim Moh Link Road to Clementi Road and is at least 50 years old. The land used to be part of a rubber plantation and was abandoned during World War 2. In the 1950s, it contained a small kampung and a sundry tree cultivation area. Thereafter, a secondary forest developed naturally and 10 years ago, parts of it were converted into Ghim Moh Link Estate and a school.

The forest is zoned as "Residential" according to the URA Master Plan, and is likely to be developed into a HDB estate in 2021. An Environmental Baseline Study was completed in 2017, revealing the high biodiversity present in Dover Forest: 158 species of fauna and 118 species of flora.

👉Clementi Forest
The forest is a Nature Paradise Hidden Behind King Albert Park and is located at the Green Corridor. It is 85 hectares and has natural streams with an uncanalised portion of a river flowing through the area, which are important micro-habitats for aquatic and semi-aquatic wildlife.

The forest has a great potential for luring a greater variety of forest wildlife over time as it becomes more mature, and with ecological enhancement, such as introducing a variety of native forest plants from the Nature Reserves.

The Nature Society Singapore (NSS) noted that the Clementi Forest is the second largest patch of wildlife habitat, after Bukit Timah Nature Reserve. Despite its rich biodiversity and ecological importance, the fate of Clementi Forest remains uncertain. Occupying not a small plot of land, the Clementi Forest is now designated for residential development, according to the Urban Redevelopment Authority's 2019 Master Plan.
Yes, that means it is a matter of time that this beautiful forest will be replaced by high-rise buildings
