The 3rd edition of the Pesta Ubin – WalkRunBike is back! For the first time, we are bringing another opportunity for participants to experience trail biking on the island at the certified Blue Square bike trail.
Doing Our Part for the Environment
In support of the kampong Ubin’s spirit of a clean and green environment, the participants are reminded to bring their own water bottle (BYOB) on actual event day.
2 km Route – (Sensory Trail)
This category is suitable for family participation. Brisk walkers would walk along Jalan Ubin towards Sensory Trail and Ubin Village and back to the Assembly Area. If you are lucky, you may catch a glimpse of native animals at close sight such as oriental pied hornbills on trees or wild boars during the scenic walk.
6 km Route – (Malay Kampong)
Runners will be running along Jalan Ubin up to Jalan Durian towards Chek Jawa Wetlands and loop back. They would be greeted by the scenic Balai Quarry, rustic kampong houses not forgetting fruit trees such as durian and coconut residing along the roadside. If you happened to see the locals, don’t forget to exchange greetings to experience the Ubin way!
