This reservoir is located in the south western part of Singapore and is known for producing spectacular sunrises and sunsets because it has an open concept. This means that there is not much shelter around the circumference of the reservoir and the trees are planted away from the water's edge and it's gravel track. The gravel track runs around the circumference of the reservoir and it is about 6.2km per lap. The place is popular with joggers, cyclists and those taking their morning and evening stroll. There are two fishing decks where fishing is allowed but only artificial baits are to be used. The main marker is the Paddle Lodge located near the T-junction of West Coast Road and Penjuru Road. This is where water activities like canoes are stored and the main water activities are carried out. The Paddle Lodge is also where the toilets are located. There is an hourly rated carpark for visitors here. For radio controlled water craft enthusiasts, there is an activity deck solely for this and it is located to the left of the Paddle Lodge. There are bus stops along West Coast Road and several busses ply the route so it is a very accessible location. The reservoir is open 24 hours though the best to lime to come will be the mornings and evenings when the sun is not yet too hot. Do put on sunblock and limit your exposure to harsh sunlight if you plan to come during the day. Also wear a cap and bring enough water for your walk! There a vending machine at the Paddle Lodge but no where else around the reservoir so take note. At night there are lamps asking the circumference of the reservoir so it will not be overly dark. Do look out for otters and monitor lizards who call this place their home. Enjoy!

Clean and open walking trail that takes you 6kms around the reservoir, with sightings of the great singapore monitor lizards cutting lazy circles in the water, very much owning the place, kingfishers diving in for a quick catch of the day and many a turtle popping its tiny head out for a breather, large birds flying in formation and if you're interested and lucky enough you could catch the hobby boat enthusiasts reaching reach other on the weekends. A km from our house and a perfect getaway. Edit 21/09/21 - we also frequent the PCN close to this reservoir and I have added some pictures here that are from the canal next to the PCN I forget to mention that there are convenient rest stops along the 6 km circuit around the reservoir which really make it a pleasant evening walk Recently I’ve been noticing the tell tale remnants of late night revellers leaving beer cans and cigarette stubs near the rocks and benches, I think we need more citizens on the watch to correct this behaviour at its nascent stages and also help pick up trash so as to help our cleaning staff

Moved into the area two months ago. Then came Covid-19 circuit breaker. Finally ventured across for a long awaited walk. It was an exhilarating and rewarding experience. From a vantage point, the paramona reminded me of Swan River and its roundabout cycling routes. Just as scenic and tranquil in the early morning. Even more breathtaking in the night. (see my photos). Amazing that such an oasis exists in the Wild Wild West end of Singapore. Must be the best-kept secret. A million-dollar view I will say. So let's keep it that way hor. Shhhhhhhhh. There is also the flora (wild flowers) and fauna (really big monitor lizards). Some may find the fogging for midges in the early morning and evening irritating but it is also the time the lizards get into action - swimming and feasting on fishes. Go. Maybe for a stroll first - like me. Then be motivated to attempt a full round of the reservoir - a daunting task that I will attempt one day.

Pandan Reservoir is a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. The reservoir is surrounded by a scenic 6.4 km track that's perfect for jogging, cycling, or a leisurely stroll. The serene environment, coupled with the calming view of the water, makes it a fantastic spot for relaxation and reflection. I especially love (read, got chance!) to sit there along with my guitar, alone in the evening. There are also several benches along the way where you can sit and enjoy the tranquility. While there aren't many amenities nearby, the natural beauty and peaceful ambiance more than make up for it. If you're looking for a quiet place to unwind or get some exercise, Pandan Reservoir is definitely worth a visit!

Its a bit far flung and hidden from the general public but that's what's really nice and quiet about it (there's more traffic there now than there was pre-covid). Singapore national & recreational rowers row at the reservoir. Its a nice place for a morning walk and there's a nice, respectable community of runners/cyclists who regularly work out around the reservoir. Spend enough time there and you might come across some wildlife sightings! Please keep the place clean so we can all continue to enjoy the beauty of nature together :) PS: there's hardly any shelter and slightly inaccessible
