Bukit Timah Nature Reserve, Bukit Panjang area, near the geographic center of Singapore · Singapore
Bukit Timah Hill
Bukit Timah Hill is the highest natural point in Singapore, rising 164 m within Bukit Timah Nature Reserve near the geographic center of the island. Despite its modest height, it holds outsized ecological importance: the reserve protects one of the last significant patches of primary rainforest remaining in Singapore and is recognized as an ASEAN Heritage Park. The hill's steep upper slopes (40-50 degree incline in places) are served by well-maintained public trails leading to a summit capped by two 1960s-era VHF radio masts. It is one of the most heavily visited nature sites in Singapore, easily reached by public transport via Hillview MRT station on the Downtown Line. While Bukit Timah is the country's highest natural terrain, several skyscrapers (notably the 284 m Guoco Tower) now exceed it in absolute height, a distinction the site is frequently careful to note.
