Parks and Green Spaces Near The Hillshore

Few city addresses sit as close to so much green space. The Hillshore backs onto Kent Ridge, the western end of the Southern Ridges, and the coastal parks of the west lie along the shore below; the developer’s map counts 13 parks within reach.

Kent Ridge Park and The Hillshore

Kent Ridge Park is about a kilometre from the site in a straight line. It is a wooded hilltop park with a canopy walk, open lawns and lookouts over the port, and it is also a place of history: the battle of Pasir Panjang was fought on these ridges in 1942, and the Reflections at Bukit Chandu centre nearby tells that story.

The developer’s brochure puts Kent Ridge Park about four minutes away by car, and counts a future park connector about a minute’s walk from the development.

The Southern Ridges from The Hillshore

From Kent Ridge Park the Southern Ridges run east for about ten kilometres of linked green space: across to HortPark, about 2.1 kilometres from the site, through the forest walk and elevated walkway of Telok Blangah Hill Park, over Henderson Waves and up to Mount Faber. Henderson Waves stands 36 metres above Henderson Road and is the highest pedestrian bridge in Singapore, and from Mount Faber the cable car crosses to Sentosa.

Measured on OneMap (SLA) from the site; walking routes are longer.

Coastal Parks West and East of The Hillshore

Along the shore, the developer’s brochure puts West Coast Park, the large regional park known for its playgrounds and open lawns, about 13 minutes away on foot, and Pasir Panjang Park about three minutes away by car. A new section of Pasir Panjang Park, about 2.2 kilometres long, is being built as part of a coastal route of some 17 kilometres from Labrador Nature Park to West Coast Park, giving more space for walking and cycling by the sea.

Labrador Nature Reserve, two stops away on the Circle Line, adds coastal forest, a rocky shoreline and the Berlayar Creek boardwalk through the mangroves.

Green Space at Home at The Hillshore

Within the development, SALD’s landscape wraps the lap pool and its green wall on the landscape deck, and the play pool, BBQ pavilion and play cove sit in a planted garden on the third storey of Block 292. The amenities page lists every facility, and the waterfront guide covers the plans for the shore.
