Much of the park is mangrove swamp.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; We will walk one of the boardwalks which is within the mangrove forest, follow along a nature trail and enjoy its rustic surroundings. <br \/><strong>Leaving Admiralty Park, we arrive at the entrance to Woodlands Waterfront<\/strong> which was launched in May this year.&nbsp; Once a laid-back coastal area where a stretch of warehouses used to be, the area now offers a variety of recreational opportunities for people of all ages&nbsp;&nbsp; The coastal park and waterfront promenade has four distinctive areas &ndash; the waterfront picnic green, event plaza, playground and jetty walk.&nbsp;&nbsp; Overlooking the Straits of Johor, the refurbished jetty measuring about 400m long and about 12m wide, is one of the longest coastal jetties in Singapore.&nbsp;&nbsp; Enjoy a breezy stroll along the jetty walk and take in the beautiful sea view.<br \/>After the jetty walk, walking back along the main Admiralty Road West we take bus service no 856 to Woodlands bus interchange\/MRT station.&nbsp;&nbsp; For those who wish to, can adjourn for dinner at the Mega Food Mall, 5th level or the Banquet, 7th level in Causeway Point. <br \/>Bring drinking water, an umbrella (for rain or sun), mosquito repellent, camera, cap and wear comfortable walking shoes.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>See you at the walk!<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Other Walk Team members:&nbsp;
