Sentosa Ecotourism adventure in NParks forest

Ecotourism in Singapore is there such a thing? There are national parks (NParks) and forests. But ecotourism? A modern tiny island metropolis of 5 million people - it is associated with shopping centres and shipping commerce. More 'manufactured-tourism' than ecotourism!

However ecotourism (or sustainable tourism) has a champion. Despite that there are hardly any environmentally 'pristine' areas left in Singapore. The Megazip Adventure Park (Megazip) sits on the pristine forest hilltop of Imbiah hill, a NParks protected oasis in the middle of Sentosa.

Sentosa Island is a designated tourism and prestige residential property development crowded with commercial mass tourism options, like a casino, Universal Studios and Underwater World. The Megazip stands out with its iconic forest appeal. No high impact development, just outdoor thrill activities surrounded by NParks protected forest, magnificent views and a giant zipline down to Siloso beach.

Ecotourism adventure in NParks forest

Megazip qualifies as a 'ecotourism' attraction in Singapore due to:

Low Environmental Impact - there are no permanent structures or buildings within the NParks protected Imbiah Hill forest area.

Creation of Environmental Awareness - the attraction showcases a rare strip of coastal rainforest in Singapore to over 100,000 tourists every year making it the most popular NParks site on Sentosa.

Financial benefits - as a popular attraction, it generates local employment, promotes NParks and contributes a commercial income stream.

So eco-conscientious travellers looking for an ecotourism adventure in Singapore? Look no further than Megazip Adventure Park.
