  Yes you can. You can trek from chestnut drive to bukit timah.. and once u r at bukit timah u can go to macritchie
  
  in fact u can do the entire route.. macritchie->peirce-> mandai forest -> bukit panjang to woodlands
  
  takes the whole damn day in a good weather though.

  Wonder if any of you have tried going to Belukar Trail via Rifle Range Road?
  
  The route that I normally go by is Kampong Trail/Rifle Range Road then in from Senapang Road.. which doesn't lead to the visitor centre
  
  I'm looking for another trail which leads to Belukar Trail -> Catchment Path but i simply can't find it when I went recently.
  
  Wonder if someone can enlighten me?! from Rifle Range Road how do we get to Belukar Trail?

  Belukar Trail?
  
  Dunno the name of the trail....but walked before
  
  Quite a distance...and I used it during my army Navigation Exercises before
