Description

Pasir Kentot is a hill in West Java Province, Indonesia, about 70 km southeast of Jakarta. In Sundanese, “pasir” means hill. Its summit stands at roughly 286 m above sea level and rises only about 5 m above the surrounding terrain, with a base roughly 0.21 km across. According to gazetteer data the surrounding land is hilly to the northwest but flat to the southeast; the nearest higher point, 505 m, lies 1.6 km to the northwest. The area is almost entirely forest-covered and very densely populated. The nearest larger town is Ciranjang (Cianjur), about 13.8 km to the south. The climate is tropical, averaging around 23 °C with high rainfall (~3,326 mm/year). Note: information on Pasir Kentot is very limited—the entry derives only from global geographic databases (NGA-GNS/GeoNames), Wikidata, and OpenStreetMap, with no documented hiking route, history, or protected-area status. The data here is confined to verifiable location, elevation, and terrain, not a climbing guide.
