We took you around Rainforest Wild Asia last February – remember? Turns out that wasn’t the full story. From May 20, 2026, the park will open its second phase, expanding to a full 20-hectare sprawl. Renamed Rainforest Wild Adventure, it’s now one huge, slightly unpredictable rainforest playground inspired by Asia and Africa, featuring nine Adventure+ activities across the park.
The new zone, called Rainforest Wild Adventure East, is inspired by the habitats and landscapes of Africa. And like Rainforest Wild Adventure West, it brings the adrenaline. Glide across the canopy at Canopy Glider, swing a breezy eight metres above ground on the Ravine Swing, or haul yourself up to panoramic viewpoints at Split Rock Summit if you’re feeling ambitious.
There’s also Primate Climb – 11 metres up, eye-level with Diana monkeys – and a 125-metre Treetop Traverse where the real wildcard is whatever wildlife decides to wander beneath you mid-crossing.
These complement the existing activities in Rainforest Wild Adventure West: the 20-metre Canopy Jump, Rockwall Climb (set in a karst landscape), and Black Adventures – guided high-element experiences and simulated cave expeditions.Those who prefer a more chill walk will find wide walkways and forest trails throughout the park, designed to be stroller and wheelchair-friendly, too.
Of course, the animals aren’t just background visuals. Okapi, an endangered and famously elusive species from Central Africa often called a “forest giraffe”, makes its Southeast Asia debut in the newly expanded zone. Four individuals have been brought in from European zoos as part of a global breeding programme, joining a cast that includes pygmy hippos, eastern bongos, red river hogs and Nile lechwe. There’s also a Madagascar-inspired multi-species habitat with lemurs, turacos and ibises. Sightings aren’t choreographed because the habitats are naturalistic, so consider every encounter a bonus.
And because no attraction is complete without a retail moment, Mandai Wildlife Group has teamed up with The Walt Disney Company Southeast Asia to debut Singapore’s first National Geographic pop-ups. The retail shops in East and West will be stocked with National Geographic apparel – think graphic tees and outdoor wear and accessories – set against interiors and displays inspired by the publication’s iconic imagery.
Now, one ticket gets you into both zones and includes selected Adventure+ activities – all nine on weekdays, up to five on weekends – with additional experiences available for separate purchase. Getting around is straightforward, with free shuttle services linking both zones, plus a connection to Khatib MRT running every 15 to 20 minutes.
