Route information and map courtesy of the Rock Pod.
Penang is an island located to the north of Peninsula Malaysia, and houses very interesting routes on granite rocks.
Those familiar with the climbing at Batu Cave's featured limestones will be in for a shock at the significant lack of options while climbing - try looking for those tiny, hidden holds!
The routes are located at Jesselton Park, just next to the water tank (see route map below):
