Jurong BirdPark Panorail is a monorail system within the Jurong BirdPark in Singapore, and is the world's only rail system that runs through an aviary. The panorail has three stations:
- Main Station, near the entrance and amphitheatre
- Lory Station, near the Lory Loft
- Waterfall Station, near the Waterfall Aviary and Jurong Falls
The monorail system uses three cars, with a driver in the front car, and seats in each car, with no standing capacity.
Tickets are at S$2.50 per adult and S$2.00 for children below 12 and unlimited rounds of trips are allowed per ticket, alike the Sentosa Express where one ticket allows unlimited rides for one day. All passengers are required to disembark at Main Station.
For the convenience of the disabled, lifts are available at every panorail station and the seats in the last cabin can be folded up to accommodate wheelchairs.
