Description

Pasir Cibadak is a low hill in Sumedang Regency, West Java, Indonesia, in the border zone with Majalengka (nearest town Majalengka, about 10 km to the east). In Sundanese "pasir" means hill — not "sand" as in Indonesian; the "Ci-" prefix means water/river and "Cibadak" is a common Sundanese place name. The feature is documented only through the NGA-GNS geographic database and its derivatives: GeoNames (ID 6397395), Wikidata (Q25124709), a single bot-generated Cebuano Wikipedia stub, and OpenStreetMap node 1070155260 (tagged MT). Its summit is recorded at about 539 m in the NGA-GNS/GeoNames gazetteer, while digital-elevation-model (DEM) readings at the coordinate are about 511–512 m; there is no official field-surveyed elevation. Its prominence is tiny (~28 m above surrounding terrain, base width ~0.3 km) — a knoll amid farmland rather than a climbing objective. No hiking trail, tourism coverage, news record, or climbing account could be found for this hill, and no photograph of the peak itself is available.
