Our Sustainable Journey
Sustainability and conservation form the core of The North Face pledge to advance the well-being of the planet, its citizens, and those who enjoy exploring it.
We embrace this responsibility and encourage the running community in Singapore to play a part in preserving our running trails.
The North Face is currently working with the National Parks to develop sustainable off-road running practices that will allow us to continue to enjoy our nature reserves for generations to come.
Erosion is the biggest threat to trail sustainability and is the natural process through which soil is worn away by wind and water. It is also a trail's worst enemy, left unchecked erosion can destroy trails. Trail erosion is accelerated by a combination of trail usage, water and gravity.
The North Face – National Parks Trail Maintenance project We would like to encourage all participants of The North Face 100 to volunteer to maintain the trails in MacRitchie and Bukit Timah Nature Reserves. Volunteers will lay tree logs & cookies along fragile sections of the trails to prevent further soil erosion. Come help us out! It will be fun!
