From the deck, visitors may choose to follow the 181-meter long skywalk trail that snakes above the trees going to Fort Siloso or simply enjoy the panoramic view of the skyscrapers of Singapore and the forests, cable cars, and beach events of Sentosa Island.

Get your cameras ready!

Whoaaaa! It's a see-through glass!

Going back to the 181-meter long skywalk trail, you'd notice that there are several covered areas spread throughout the trail. These covered areas are actually stations where the history boards about the history of the island are placed. It also serves as a perfect cover just in case it suddenly rains.

I managed to visit the Fort Siloso Skywalk with my family during our 2017 Singapore - Malaysia tour. It was quite surprising that a beautiful structure like this received only a handful of visitors. Not to mention, that it is one of the few attractions in Sentosa Island that is free of any entrance fee.

 Overall, the Fort Siloso Skywalk would surely be a hit to both history buffs and nature lovers. Before I forget, don't miss out on the chance to visit the see-through glass floor area of the viewing deck. That's the best place to test your fear of heights.

Why visit Fort Siloso Skywalk?

Fort Siloso Skywalk is a relatively unknown tourist destination for foreign tourists visiting Singapore. This place offers an amazing view of Siloso Beach and some parts of Sentosa Island. It is also connected to the historic Fort Siloso so you might want to include that in your itinerary. 

Getting to Fort Siloso Skywalk:


 From the airport, ride a train going to Harbourfront Station on the North-East Line. From there, enter VivoCity Mall and head to the third floor. Look for booths selling the Sentosa Pass. Once you have it board the Sentosa Express. Once in Sentosa Island, ride the free shuttle and board down at Siloso Point and walk a few meters to Fort Siloso.

    Love how the Fort Silosos Skywalk is located where you can get amazing natural views on one side and some amazing views of the city skyline on the other. Plus I know so little about Singapore History that this would be a fun way to learn about some aspects of the area and their military history too.
