Puncak Nipah
Green Line Route
★★★
No pitch-by-pitch record survives for this route. If you have climbed it, the logbook wants your topo.
Approach
From Nipah beach, up through the jungle below the south side of the tower to the start. The Nipah slabs and this summit tower share the hillside – see Puncak Nipah.
Character
Up the summit tower of Puncak Nipah from the jungle on its south side. One 80 m pitch, big runouts, tree belays, and a hornet nest marked on the topo.
Gear
Natural protection throughout.
No fixed gear and no abseil line. The first ascensionists wrote “very dangerous but easy — should be better to bolt route.” The difficulty is runouts and looseness, not hard moves.
Potential
The topo has two separate arrows pointing at unclimbed rock, both labelled “big potential for new routes”.
