Here are 10 outdoor activities in Singapore to keep you fit and feeling good.
#1 Running
A great way to blast calories and get in shape, running is a full-body, endorphin-producing workout that can help bust stress and strengthen your joints. Whether it’s along the Singapore River, the Botanic Gardens, the Sentosa beaches or East Coast Park, there are tons of places to power-walk, jog or full-on sprint.
Looking to get fit with running but don’t know where to start? UFIT’s RunFit programme helps individuals ignite their passion for running and takes regular runners outside their comfort zones by introducing intervals, Fartleks, stairs and hills, and combinations of each (check ufitbootcamps.com.sg/runfit-classes for more details).

#2 Hiking
There are loads of locales across the island for a nice hike with the fam – from MacRitchie Reservoir Park and the Southern Ridges to any one of Singapore’s many other trails. You’ll engage different muscle groups all at once, including your core, thighs, calves and ankles, while building cardiovascular strength and burning calories. And, it’s free – a win for everybody!
#3 Bootcamp
Offered everywhere across the island, from green spaces to scenic beaches to the CBD, outdoor bootcamps are an excellent source of cardio, and are extremely popular among those who want to get fit, get outside and get social, all at the same time.
