Walk along Holland Rd/Clementi Rd/Jalan Anak Bukit/Upper Bukit Timah Rd before ending at Hillview MRT The route may be modified during the walk to better suit the group’s pace and fitness levels.

Proper Footwear • Well-fitting shoes: Ensure your shoes are properly broken in and provide enough support, especially if you're walking long distances. Sturdy hiking or walking shoes with good arch support are ideal. • Blister prevention: Consider blister-resistant socks or pack blister pads to address any discomfort before it becomes a problem. 3\. Hydration • Water bottle: Stay hydrated throughout the walk to maintain energy levels and prevent dehydration. 4\. Snacks • Energy bars or trail mix: Portable, nutrient-packed snacks high in carbohydrates and protein—perfect for refueling during breaks. • Nuts or dried fruit: Easy to carry and great for providing long-lasting energy. 5\.
