Location
Tampines Bike Park is located in the eastern part of Singapore, in the Tampines Regional Centre. Just one-kilometre away from Tampines Mall, the entrance of the park and the parking lot are located along Tampines Avenue 9 at the junction of Tampines Avenue 7.
History
Situated on a 60-hectare site, the current Mountain Bike trail is seven-kilometre long and offers several climbs as well as a challenging downhill ride. The trail hosted the Phat Tyre Sunday Mountain Bike Race in 2007, involving more than 260 participants from Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore.
The trail is being upgraded to make it even more technically challenging.
The BMX portion of the park is currently used for stunt practice by BMX enthusiasts. It is being developed into a full-scaled BMX race track for local community use and to host major international events.
The start and finish areas of the mountain bike and BMX courses in the bike park are adjacent to one another, allowing the spectators the best possible view of both events.
How to get there
Tampines Bike Park is accessible via Tampines MRT station.
