Located at the town’s northern end is Yishun Neighbourhood Park, a hill where a climb is a rewarded with a tranquil open space and where families will also be able to find a hilltop playground.
Yishun Neighbourhood Park is bounded by Yishun Avenues 7 and 2, and Yishun Streets 20 and 22. It has paths leading up to its summit from Streets 20 and 22 and the junction of Avenue 2 and 7.
This hill was once part of an old rubber estate. Instead of rubber trees, nowadays, you will find beautiful plants, shrubs and other trees on the hill.

Other play elements at the Yishun Neighbourhood Park playground include a see-saw, teeter-totter and a pair of swings. One of the swings is bucket seat for younger children.
Gym Pod
Close to the children’s playground is a “playground” for adults. This is the Gym Pod, a space at the park which can be booked for a workout.
Allotment Garden
The top of this hill also hosts an allotment garden where community gardeners can put their green fingers to work.
