Director Dave Pritt continues to lead the way
on Carstensz… five with 100% success. In 2008
Adventure Peaks made the first return journey
from the remote village of Ilaga, a magnificent
trek in its own right supported by the mysterious
Dani tribe.
At 4884m, Carstensz Pyramid is the highest
peak in Indonesia and Australasia, making it
a significant challenge as part of the Seven
Summits. The remote Carstensz maintains a
sense of mystery, rising from the dense jungle of
Papua and often shrouded in mist. An expedition
to this intriguing landscape is not just a climbing
venture, but a journey back in time through tribal
ancestries and an incredible rich and rewarding
experience.
The climbing on this limestone mountain offers
a variety of interesting and challenging routes at
varying grades. The standard route up the West
Ridge is a relatively straightforward but technical
scramble, with the occasional steeper rock pitch
at Severe (5.3-5.4) grading.
We have had 100% success on all our expeditions.
We have approached by treking, helicopter and
through the Freeport goldmine.
including- 1st Irish Ascent (Ian McKeever & Grania Willis) 1st South African (Sibusiso Vilane).
