A last frontier. An experience you will never forget..!
Being the highest peak between the Andes and the Himalaya, the Carstensz Pyramid (6,023ft/4,884m) is considered by many to be the most exotic and technicaly challenging of the Seven Summits, Carstensz Pyramid towers above an equatorial rainforest jungle populated by people that have had little contact with the western world.
