Get Ready For A New Animal Adventure At Rainforest Wild Asia, Opening In March 2025
Animal lovers and adventure seekers, drop everything because you're going to love this. Rainforest Wild Asia, a new adventure-themed zoological park, will be opening its doors to visitors come March 2025! As the fifth zoo located in Singapore, this one sets itself apart with its highly immersive rainforest environment and stunning scenic landscaping.
The space is home to 10 zones, all sprawling replicas of real rainforests, caves, and even towering limestone formations. These enclosures will house all sorts of wildlife and greenery, including species that have yet to be exhibited in Singapore.

To make things even more interesting, visitors can explore the space in style of a choose-your-own-adventure story! There are multiple routes to pick from, catering to different adventure appetites.
Will you take a leisurely stroll across the elevated walkways (that provide accessibility to all) or channel your inner Lara Croft and take on logs, streams and boulders?

Inspired by the world-famous Mulu Caves in Sarawak, The Cavern resembles the famed UNESCO World Heritage Site with its intricate cave structure. Here, you can seek out cave species like racer snakes and giant black scorpions, while tunnelling along adventurous side paths.
Canopy Jump

This one's for the true adrenaline junkies: leap off a ledge from the highest point of Rainforest Wild Asia and into a 20-metre freefall at Canopy Jump, one of several add-on adventure experiences. On the way, you'll also get the chance to admire the stunning rainforest vistas before transitioning safely to the forest floor.
The Karsts

If we had to pick just one spot for the 'gram, The Karsts would hands down be it. From the impressively jagged limestone formations to the lush canopy where primates dwell, the expertly designed Karsts look every inch like the setting for a grand adventure film. It also offers great vantage points where you'll get an eyeful of the François langurs hanging about the habitat.
