Jalan Pelikat Park Connector is a 1.49km neighbourhood route from Kampong Sireh to Hougang Avenue 3, running along Jalan Pelikat and Hougang Street 22. It links Upper Serangoon with Hougang rather than offering a single enclosed park to circle.
That makes it a useful choice for a modest point-to-point walk. Choose a start and a finish, enjoy the changing residential surroundings and keep the journey home straightforward.
NParks lists the connector as wheelchair accessible. As with any neighbourhood journey, check the exact approach and current crossings for your own needs instead of assuming every route to the connector is equivalent.

CHAPTER 1 OF 4
1. Choose one direction
Think of Kampong Sireh and Hougang Avenue 3 as the route’s two ends. Decide which suits your arrival and which offers the return journey you prefer.
The published 1.49km is the connector length, not the total distance from your front door, station or bus stop. Returning along the same route adds another walking leg.
Our suggestion for a first visit is a one-way walk with the finish already planned. If you prefer an out-and-back outing, choose a comfortable turnaround rather than insisting on the full length.
CHAPTER 2 OF 4
2. Follow the neighbourhood sequence
The official route description names Jalan Pelikat and Hougang Street 22 between the two endpoints. Use those names as orientation checks when consulting your map.
This is a chance to notice how a walking link threads through everyday residential life. Look for differences in streetscape and planting without treating private homes as attractions.
Stay on public paths and respect residents’ privacy. A cheerful neighbourhood walk does not require close-up photographs of entrances, people or windows.

3. Keep movement comfortable
A connector is shared space. Keep your group compact, look before changing direction and stop to check a phone only where others can pass comfortably.
If visiting with children, agree on a simple rule: pause together at crossings and junctions. Do not let a running game carry someone beyond the group’s clear line of sight.
For wheelchair users, confirm the approach to the chosen start as well as the connector itself. An accessible route label does not describe every pavement or transport interchange nearby.

4. Leave the longer network for another day
NParks lists Hougang Avenue 3 Park Connector nearby. That is an optional continuation to investigate, not a reason to extend this walk automatically.
At the finish, check your energy, the weather and the return journey before adding distance. If anyone is tired, ending at the planned point is the successful outcome.
Our Hougang neighbourhood guide offers other local ideas for a separate visit. A familiar short connector can become a useful repeat walk precisely because it is easy to fit into an ordinary day.
