A Little Secret at Sembawang

The Little Secret in Sembawang

Where can you find a park, a beach, colonial era houses, and a hot spring in the North of Singapore? 

Sembawang loh!!!

What's the newest addition to this 15 hectare park? A dog run! 2700 sqm worth of free space for the doggies! It was even featured in the newspapers in September. I guess its still not quite famous like Bishan Park Dog Run, judging by the crowd there at 5.30pm on a weekend. 

 It is placed nicely in a corner of the park, away from the beach. One of the front gate latches was damaged when we were there, but it is still secured as there were two gates before you can enter the dog run. Always remember to lock up behind you!

The grass at the dog run is still lush and green, so do make a visit before the greenery starts wearing down! As you can see the length of this rectangular shaped dog run, you can do some serious running and dashing with your doggies. From the paper's report, it is as large as 21 basketball courts.

Here we have Peanut and Sasha having fun walking and sniffing around this new found land.

 They even have sand pits made for the doggies to do their businesses, whatever it may be.

There's still room for improvements. For example, there's only 2 sitting areas that can accommodate 8 people. There's plenty of room for you to stand though. The whole area's pretty empty.

 There are no street lights in the area. The only form of lighting would be from the shipyard and the jogging track outside the dog run. You can still continue to walk your dog in Sembawang Park. There's also a beach and plenty of space for you to do a picnic with your doggies.










If visiting, please park your vehicle at the first carpark you encounter along the road to Sembawang Park. It is the nearest one and walking to the dog run would be a down sloping track, Less sweat LOL.

This dog run, in my view, has certainly made Sembawang Park a gem in the North. ( to dog owners )
